Anaerobic power and capacity in amateur boxers
There were two purposes to this study. Firstly, a test was devised to measure the anaerobic power output of arm punching. Secondly, the Wingate anaerobic arm cranking test was used to assess the relationship between the ... -
Influence of physical training on the accuracy of predicting aerobic power (VO2 max) using the Åstrand nomogram
(1987)The purpose of this study was to determine if the level of physical training influenced the accuracy of predicting aerobic power (VO2 max) using the Åstrand nomogram (1960). A total of 48 male subjects (24 trained, 24 ... -
Influence of type II muscle fibers and creatine supplementation on repeated bouts of the Wingate Anaerobic Test
(2001)The main purpose of this thesis was to investigate the influence of muscle fiber type composition and supplemental creatine monohydrate on repeated bouts of the Wingate Anaerobic Test (WAnT). More specifically, would a ... -
Perceived exertion and work capacity during the menstrual cycle
(1984)The purpose of this study was to identify and confirm biochemically three phases of the menstrual cycle in 14 well conditioned athletes and then to examine the effects of the various phases on work capacity, perceived ... -
Transient oxygen uptake response as an indicator of sports specific adaptation
(1987)A cross-sectional design examined aerobic power and transient oxygen uptake responses of four male sports groups (cyclists, runners, swimmers, and cross-country skiers). Data was collected via three modes of ergometry ...
