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

Q

Quebec 10 sec. test:

A
  • 2 trials of 10s at resistance of 90 g/kg

- use highest total output

17
Q

Peak glycolytic power output occurs between _____ and ____ power.

A
  • alactic

- aerobic

18
Q

Cunningham-Faulkner test:

A
  • treadmill
  • 8 ph at 20% grade, modification 7.5-8.5 depending on previously determined aerobic fitness
  • timed test (starts when the subject begins to run and stops when they touch the handrails)
19
Q

Boscoe 60s vertical jump test:

A
  • repetitive jumping using force mat to measure power based on total flight time (total height)
  • can e modified to a 15s test
20
Q

Which protocols can be modified for upper body power and capacity?

A
  • cycle ergometer protocols (eg. Wingate)

- rowing (optimal resistance varied depending on gender and if heavy or light weight rower)

21
Q

How does the Wingate have high utility with robust outcomes?

A
  • alactic power
  • alactic capacity
  • glycolytic power
  • glycolytic capability (modification)
  • can also be used to determine fatigueability
22
Q

Fatigued indexes are usually expressed as…

A

a % drop in PO

23
Q

Fatigue indexes indicates…

A

loss of muscular performance due to various fatigue factors

24
Q

Fatigue factors:

A
  • depletion of ATP-CP
  • accumulation of H+/Ca++ (buffering capacity)
  • tolerance to pain
25
Q

Anaerobic field testing is typically..

A
  • sport specific

- typically involve repetitive all out sprint tasks with a timed component

26
Q

Anaerobic capacity ice skating test:

A
  • sprint 12x a distance of 60 ft
  • time reported in seconds
  • reliability of r = 0.96
27
Q

FIFA interval sprint test:

A
  • 6 x 40m sprint (< 1:30 rest between)

- all intervals < 6.2s for international refs

28
Q

Running based on Anaerobic Sprint test (RAST):

A
  • 6 x 35m sprints on track
  • 10 second rest between to allow turnaround
  • record time to complete all six sprints
  • power = weight x distance^2 / time^2
  • from 6 times you may also calculate the power for each run then determine max, min, fatigue index
29
Q

Factors affecting running tests:

A
  • timing systems vs stop watch
  • start stance
  • surface
  • shoes (cleats/spikes?)
  • environmental conditions
  • coordination
30
Q

Post test considerations:

A
  • cool down should be for a minimum of 5 min. of active recovery
  • if feeling faint, lay down with feet up
  • should assign a buddy to supervise the cool down
  • fruit juice
