{{DISPLAYTITLE:BSX Lactate Threshold Monitor}}
BSX is a simple, easy to use [[Running Sensors| Running Sensor]] that estimates your [[Lactate Threshold]], but I don't believe its results are correct or useful. You just wear the BSX monitor in a custom calf compression sleeve that it comes with, along with the BSX app on your phone, while running on a treadmill. The BSX app tells you what pace to run at, which increases every 3 minutes until you can't continue, at which point it (probably) tells you (it's guess at) your [[Lactate Threshold]] pace. Sadly, while the BSX simple and easy to use, the results are rather dubious and it's unclear to me if it does a better job than simply using an estimate of your 10K race pace. (This review is for the second generation BSX; for results of the first generation, see [[BSX Gen1]].) '''It seems that BSX has abandoned sales of this sensor, and is going to decommission the cloud services it requires to be useful. '''
