The aim of the present study was to verify the applicability of anaerobic work capacity (AWC) determined from the critical power model in elite table tennis players. Eight male international level table tennis players participated in the study. The tests undertaken were: 1) A critical frequency test used to determinate the anaerobic work capacity; 2) Wingate tests were performed using leg and arm ergometers. AWC corresponded to 99.5 ± 29.1 table tennis balls. AWC was not related to peak (r = -0.25), mean (r = -0.02), relative peak (r = -0.49) or relative mean power (r = 0.01), nor fatigue index (r = -0.52) (Wingate leg ergometer). Similar correlations for peak (r = -0.34), mean (r = -0.04), relative peak (r = -0.49), relative mean power (r = -0.14) and peak blood lactate concentration (r = -0.08) were determined in the Wingate arm ergometer test. Based on these results the AWC determined by a modified critical power test was not a good index for measurement of anaerobic capacity in table tennis players. Key pointsAnaerobic work capacity (AWC) was not good index of anaerobic capacity in table tennis.AWC determined using the table tennis ergometer showed low correlations with the Wingate test measures for cycle and arm ergometry.A sport-specific protocol is required for measuring anaerobic capacity in table tennis.
本研究旨在验证从临界功率模型确定的无氧工作能力(AWC)在精英乒乓球运动员中的适用性。 8 名国际级乒乓球运动员参加了这项研究。进行的测试有:1)临界频率测试,用于确定无氧工作能力;2)使用腿和手臂测功计进行的瓦格纳测试。 AWC 对应于 99.5±29.1 个乒乓球。 AWC 与峰值(r=-0.25)、平均值(r=-0.02)、相对峰值(r=-0.49)或相对平均功率(r=0.01)、疲劳指数(r=-0.52)(瓦格纳腿测功计)均无相关性。在瓦格纳手臂测功计测试中,峰值(r=-0.34)、平均值(r=-0.04)、相对峰值(r=-0.49)、相对平均功率(r=-0.14)和峰值血乳酸浓度(r=-0.08)的相关性也相似。基于这些结果,使用改良临界功率测试确定的 AWC 不是乒乓球运动员无氧能力的良好指标。关键点使用乒乓球测功计确定的 AWC 不是乒乓球无氧能力的良好指标。AWC 与瓦格纳测试的自行车和手臂测功计测量值的相关性较低。需要专门的乒乓球无氧能力测量方案。
