    Purpose: To examine the aerobic energy portion utilized during the Wingate Anaerobic Test. Methods: Power output was compared with direct values obtained from measured oxygen uptake (VO2), in 14 (14.4 ± 1.0 yrs) healthy adolescents and 14 young adults (26.0 ± 1.0 yrs). Results: All subjects completed the exercise challenges without ECG abnormality. At rest, significant (P<0.05) differences were noted between the groups in heart rate, and diastolic blood pressure. At peak exercise, significant (P<0.05) differences were noted between adolescents and young subjects for oxygen uptake (21.5 ± 0.3 vs. 18.3 ± 0.3 mLO2 × kg-1 × min-1 respectively), power output for 30 s (0.63 ± 0.3 vs. 0.78 ± 0.3 LO2 × min..
