The purpose of this study was to compare the Wingate cycling and Bosco repeated jumps anaerobic tests. Eleven men (21.36 ± 1.6 years; 179.1 ± 9.3 cm; 78.7 ± 11.0 kg) and 9 women (21.89 ± 3.66 years; 171.8 ± 10.0 cm; 75.9 ± 21.4 kg), all university athletes, volunteered to participate. Subjects performed each test in random order. The tests consisted of a 30-second Wingate test and a 60-second Bosco test. The Wingate test was conducted using a Monark cycle ergometer and the Bosco test was…

The Relationship Between Lower Extremity Wingate Anaerobic Test (WAnT) and 50m Freestyle Swimming Performance
The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between 50mt freestyle swimming performance and lower extremity Wingate anaerobic power and capacity test. 11 male (age: 13.45 ± 1.03 years,…
Reliability and validity of the 30-s continuous jump test for anaerobic fitness evaluation.
The Anaerobic Power Assessment in CrossFit® Athletes: An Agreement Study
TLDR
The results suggest that AST and RJT are good alternatives for measuring the anaerobic power in CF athletes when access to a laboratory is not possible.
eliability and validity of the 30s continuous jump test for anaerobic tness evaluation
TLDR
The correlations observed in terms of anaerobic indices between the tests provide evidence that the CJ30 may adequately assess anaerilic performance level.
Development of Wingate Anaerobic Test Norms for Highly-Trained Women
TLDR
The norms for PP and MP produced from this study are considerably higher than previously published norms and more practical because of the use of highly-trained participants, the higher resistance setting that is recommended for these individuals, and theUse of toe stirrups.
Wingate Anaerobic Test Peak Power and Anaerobic Capacity Classifications for Men and Women Intercollegiate Athletes
TLDR
The Wingate Anaerobic Test has been established as an effective tool in measuring both muscular power and anaerobic capacity in a 30-second time period; however, there are no published normative tables by which to compare WAnT performance in men and women intercollegiate athletics.
Wingate anaerobic power test
TLDR
The purpose of this article review was to describe WAnT in all dimensions, which is proven to be valid and reliable and the most popular anaerobic performance test.
Take-Off Efficiency: Transformation of Mechanical Work Into Kinetic Energy During the Bosco Test
Purpose. The aim of the study is to present a new method for determining the efficiency of take-off during a 60-s bosco repeated vertical jump test. Method. The study involved 15 physical education…
Reliability of the four series 15-second vertical jumping test
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to check the reliability of the vertical jumping test and re-test in four series of the 15seconds test (IVJT). Method: Eighteen male volunteer athletes…
The Relationship Between Aerobic and Anaerobic Performance in Recreational Runners
TLDR
The results indicate an existing possibility that anaerobic performance measures such as RFD may have a positive relationship with aerobic performance Measures such as VO2max, and it may be beneficial to integrate specific training components which focus on improving RFD as a method of improving running performance.

How anaerobic is the Wingate Anaerobic Test for humans?
TLDR
The results indicate firstly that WAnT requires the use of more anaerobically derived energy than previously estimated, secondly that anaerobic metabolism is dominated by glycolysis, thirdly thatWAnT mechanical efficiency is lower than that found in aerobic exercise tests, and fourthly that the latter finding partly explains discrepancies between previously published and the present data.
Reliability and validity of the maximal anaerobic running test.
TLDR
It is concluded that the anaerobic energy production is high in the MART, the test is reliable, and that the treadmill and cycle ergometer test measure slightly different qualities.
Relationship between isokinetic performance and ballistic movement
TLDR
The power output during ballistic activities was much higher than the power measured during zero acceleration performances, explained in the light of the fact that, when jumping, three different extensor muscle groups in each leg contract with re-use during the concentric phase of elastic energy stored during the eccentric phase.
Mechanical jumping power in athletes.
TLDR
Between sport differences were limited, training differences in one subset of athletes were readily identified and the overall average power output showed improvement.
Mechanical power test and fiber composition of human leg extensor muscles
TLDR
The present findings suggest that muscular performance, as determined by the new jumping test, is influenced by skeletal muscle fiber composition.
Standard Anaerobic Exercise Tests
TLDR
Maximal anaerobic capcity tests are subdivided into maximal oxygen debt test, ergometric tests (all-out tests and constant load tests), measurement of oxygen deficit during a constant load test and measurement of peak blood lactate.
Training status (endurance or sprint) and catecholamine response to the Wingate-test in women.
TLDR
The results indicated, in contrast to the men's data, that the catecholamine response to the Wingate-test did not differ between female subjects of different status of training and argues in favour of sex differences in response to training.
Gender comparisons in anaerobic power and anaerobic capacity tests.
TLDR
Results indicated significant differences between men and women in body height, weight and per cent fat, in fat free mass (FFM), anaerobic power, andAnaerobic capacity when recorded as gross work completed and relative to body weight, but these differences are reduced when data is adjusted for body weight and further reduced when corrected for FFM.
A simple method for measurement of mechanical power in jumping
TLDR
The new jumping test seems suitable to evaluate the power output of leg extensor muscles during natural motion because of its high reproducibility and simplicity, and is suitable for laboratory and field conditions.
