Anaerobic Power and Capacity Flashcards
1
Q
Why assess the anaerobic system?
A
relevant to occupations, sport, and ADLs
2
Q
Anaerobic testing considerations:
A
- duration
- intensity
- resistance
- ergometry
- protocol
- tester control
- biological factors
3
Q
Tester control includes:
A
- rested state of the individual: ATP-CP stores, glycogen, absence of DOMS
- motivation
- ergometry/mode of exercise
- time of day
- protocol (resistance setting, speed/grade)
4
Q
Biological factors include:
A
- body mass
- tolerance and buffering capacity
- muscle fibre type (metabolism, size, recruitment)
- fitness level
- age and gender
5
Q
Anaerobic alactic power aka…
A
ATP-PCr power
6
Q
Margaria-Kalamen test protocol:
A
- running start (20 ft)
- ascend steps 3 at a time
- 1.05m vertical
7
Q
What is used to calculate power in the Margaria-Kalamen test?
A
- kg
- height travelled
- time to travel
8
Q
1 kg*m/s^2 =
A
1 Newton
9
Q
1 Nm/s =
A
1 Watt
10
Q
Limitations of Margaria-Kalamen test:
A
- accuracy issues with timing
- need standard/accurate measure of stair heights (17.5 cm)
11
Q
Clemons & Harrison modification:
A
- no lead in
- 2 steps at a time
- 2.04 m vertical
12

Margaria-Kalamen test is testing….
A
anaerobic alactic (ATP-PCr_ power
13
Q
Wingate test is testing…
A
anaerobic alactic (ATP-PCr_ power
14
Q
Wingate protocol:
A
- all out pedaling test on a Monark cycle ergometer
- optimal (high) resistance setting adapted for various populations
- trained = 95 g/kg
- active = 85 g/kg
- sedentary = 75 g/kg
15
Q
Total power output achieved during first _____ of Wingate test.
A
10 seconds
