Is the point where you/anyone starts breathing in through nose/mouth/arse a rough and ready measure for running at just about threshold?
Is it any different from running at threshold heart rate?It's, to quote skinny (from on here) (and I'm probably quoting badly) one of two ways to increase your FTP. You either push it up slowly (by working just below threshold) or pull it up hard by doing intervals over threshold.
(I think, happy to be put back in my box if I've got it arse over tit)

(I think, happy to be put back in my box if I've got it arse over tit)Yep that’s the general training advice I’ve read too. Try not to forget to fit in the long slow runs/time on feet though, as these work on strength. I’ve been guilty to not doing much of this - Too boring.
Where’s @PhilPub at lately?

Does anyone know anything about nose breathing only threshold tests?
Just had to do one and it wasn’t that pleasant! My nostrils close up if I breathe in too hard which made it interesting, but I wasn’t sure of that was part of the test.
