The goal of lactater is to provide tools for making it easier to analyze lactate thresholds.
You can install the released version of lactater from CRAN with:
You can install the development version of lactater from Github with:

In case you would like to retrieve the data for producing your own plots, you can use the lactate_curve() function:
data_lactate_curve <- lactate_curve(
.data = demo_data,
intensity_column = "intensity",
lactate_column = "lactate",
heart_rate_column = "heart_rate",
fit = "3rd degree polynomial",
include_baseline = FALSE,
sport = "cycling"
)

library(ggplot2)
ggplot() +
geom_path(data = data_lactate_curve$lactate_curve, aes(intensity, lactate)) +
geom_point(data = data_lactate_curve$data, aes(intensity, lactate), size = 4) +
theme_light()
ggplot() +
geom_path(data = data_lactate_curve$heart_rate_response, aes(intensity, heart_rate)) +
geom_point(data = data_lactate_curve$data, aes(intensity, heart_rate), size = 4) +
theme_light()
You can also combine the results from the lactate_threshold() function to plot the results:
ggplot() +
geom_path(data = data_lactate_curve$lactate_curve, aes(intensity, lactate)) +
geom_point(data = data_lactate_curve$data, aes(intensity, lactate), size = 4) +
geom_point(data = results_overall, aes(intensity, lactate, color = method), size = 3) +
theme_light()
You can also compare the lactate curves after a training period, for example:
data_after_training <- tibble::tribble(
~step, ~length, ~intensity, ~lactate, ~heart_rate,

.data = data_after_training,
intensity_column = "intensity",
