Weber, Vinícius M. R.; Fernandes, Daniel Z.; Vieira, Edgar R.; Ferreira, Sandra A.; da Silva, Danilo F.; Queiroga, Marcos R. – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2021
Purpose: The aim of this study was to propose field-based tests to estimate the anaerobic power of wheelchair basketball athletes. Methods: Eleven lower class wheelchair basketball players performed the Wingate test (WT) and two field-based tests (repeated sprints) of 15 (S-15) and 20 (S-20) meters. The WT provides data in Watts (W). The S-15 and…
