Wingate TestClinical

30-second maximal cycling sprint test of anaerobic power output.

The Wingate Anaerobic Test is a laboratory cycle-ergometer protocol, typically a 30-second all-out sprint against a fixed resistance, used to derive peak power (highest instantaneous output) and mean power (average output over the test) as indices of anaerobic capacity. It is a standard benchmark for quantifying anaerobic training adaptations in athletic populations.
