Abstract

Introduction. Power plays a vital role in various sporting activities in which the aerobic system produces the most energy. However, anaerobic power is vital when the player demands an immediate energy supply. The primary goal of this study is to determine whether the standing broad jump (SBJ) and vertical jump (VJ) tests can be correlated with those of the Win-gate ergometry test so that a reliable and cost-effective method for athlete monitoring and skill identification is available. Material and Methods. Forty healthy athletes, 26 males and 14 females from different sports, participated in the study. Each participant completed the Wingate, SBJ, and VJ tests in a controlled environment, and the results were analyzed. Results. Pearson’s correlation test showed a positive correlation between peak power and the SBJ distance (r = 0.74, p
