This study examined the relationship between estimates of alactacid anaerobic power, lactacid anaerobic power and aerobic power in a sample of trained swimmers (age 14.4 yr., n = 8) and a sample of untrained boys (age 13.7 yr., n = 13). The anaerobic power outputs were estimated using a modification of the Wingate Anaerobic Test and aerobic power was estimated using a continuous, incremental cy...

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whole-muscle content of several proteins involved in the regulation of skeletal muscle mitochondrial protein content and anaerobic capacity following 4 weeks of extremely low-volume high-intensity interval training (HIT). Methods: Young, healthy, recreationally active adult males (n = 8) trained 4 times a week for 4 weeks on a cycle ergo...

BACKGROUND The effect of massage on recovery from high intensity exercise is debatable. Many studies on massage suffer from methodological flaws such as poor standardisation of previous exercise, lack of dietary control, and inappropriate massage duration. OBJECTIVE To examine the effects of leg massage compared with passive recovery on lactate clearance, muscular power output, and fatigue ch...

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the performance and energy systems contribution during four upper-body Wingate tests interspersed by 3-min intervals. Fourteen well-trained male adult Judo athletes voluntarily took part in the present study. These athletes were from state to national level, were in their competitive period, but not engaged in any weight loss procedure. Energy s...

Methods Trained male cyclists (n=11;24.3 ± 0.6 years; VO2MAX:54.9 ± 2.7ml/kg/min)consumed isocaloricsports beverages containing citric acid (placebo), triacetin (TRI), or acetic acid (AA)in a double-blind, randomized, controlled crossover study. Subjects consumed 710 mLbeverage anda standard breakfastbeginning each test day. Subjects performed two 30 second Wingate cycle tests separated by 4 mi...

The purpose of this study was to compare performance factors of youth soccer players according to position. A total of 101 high school soccer players were selected and were classified into goalkeeper (n=7), defense (n=37), midfield (n=39), and forward (n=18) positions. All subjects were subjected to the Wingate test for anaerobic capacity, shuttle run test for aerobic capacity, and pass, kick, ...

In this issue we (Adams and Wingate, pp. 123-133) have presented data that show that J. bermudiana is being subjected to hybridization and likely introgression from Darrell's cedar (J. virginiana var. silicicola) and Smith's cedar (J. v. var. virginiana). Because Dr. Wingate and I have differing philosophies on the conservation of species, we decided to omit conclusions from the previous paper ...
