Inertial Load Influences Power Measures during the Wingate Test

The Wingate Test is a commonly used assessment of anaerobic capacity and power during cycling. Wingate Protocol involves participants reaching maximal pedal cadence prior to resistance being added to the cycling flywheel. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to create a method to correct power measures to account for the influence of inertial load during a Wingate Test. METHODS: This study was performed using a Velotron ergometer and the...
