Comparison of Sprint and Run Times with Performance on the Wingate Anaerobic Test.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Tharp, Gerald D.; And Others – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 1985
Male volunteers were studied to examine the relationship between the Wingate Anaerobic Test (WAnT) and sprint-run times and to determine the influence of age and weight. Results indicate the WAnT is a moderate predictor of dash and run times but becomes a stronger predictor when adjusted for body weight. (Author/MT)
