| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship among the scores of three tests of anaerobic capacity for Division II collegiate track and field athletes. Participants (N=38) completed each of the following tests: the Wingate Anaerobic Cycle Test (WAnT), the Cunningham and Faulkner anaerobic treadmill test, and the Running-based Anaerobic Sprint Test (RAST). The tests were conducted over a three-week period during the indoor track and field season. A Pearson-Product correlation was used to determine the strength of the relationship among the anaerobic capacity measurements of the tests. The correlation among all tests was significant at the p< 0.01 level. A sub-area of this study was to develop a preliminary set of percentile-based norms for the Cunningham and Faulkner anaerobic treadmill test based on the results of collegiate level athletes. However, due to the small and selective sample, the norms presented in this study are to be used with caution and are for comparison purposes only. | en_US |
