The Validity of Anaerobic Power Test for Explosive Power - A Case Study of Wingate Experiment

Research objectives: the purpose of this paper is to verify the validity of Wingate anaerobic power bicycle test for measuring explosive force. Through the laboratory accurate test of the explosive force of lower limbs, the validity of the explosive force measurement method is provided. Research methods: This study carried out Wingate experiment and RM longitudinal jump experiment with different loads on 15 undergraduates in track and field selected from College of Physical Education and Health of Guangxi Normal University. For the longitudinal jump test data, the peak average power obtained by summarizing and calculating the peak power of the lower limb of the vertical jump was selected. For the Wingate test data, the average power of the 0-5s time interval was selected (the peak power appeared in the 0-5s time interval). the experimental data obtained from Wingate anaerobic power test and longitudinal jump test with different loads were processed, compared and analyzed, and the normality test and correlation analysis were carried out. the results showed that there was significant correlation between the data of Wingate anaerobic power test and the longitudinal jump test. the correlation analysis of the data of the two groups showed that the correlation coefficient was 0.774, P=0.001, a significant correlation at the 0.01 level, indicating a positive correlation between anaerobic power and lower limb power. Research conclusions: the Wingate anaerobic power test can be used as an effective method to measure explosive power, and the measured data is valid.
