in watts (W)), relative peak power (determined by dividing peak power by body mass, expressed as W/kg) and a fatigue index determined from the decline in power.
variations: an arm ergometer can also be used to measure upper body anaerobic power.
Anaerobic Power Tests
Muscular power tests include: Wingate Anaerobic Power test, Isokinetic dynamometry, vertical jump, and stair sprint.

What it tells you How long and hard you can sprint--aka anaerobic power. The slower you fatigue, the better conditioned you are.
What you'll suffer through You start out with a warmup: pedaling a no-frills stationary bike for five minutes.
Also known as aerobic power or maximal oxygen intake/consumption. VO2maxis a commonly used descriptor of aerobic (cardiovascular) fitness.
The men did not achieve the same level of aerobic power they had attained at age 20, however, the researchers noted. But they lost an average of about nine pounds and lowered their blood pressure from an average of 140/88 mmHg to 132/84 mmHg.

Although there was not an increase in PCr resynthesis, creatine loading did show ergogenic effects by increasing peak torque and anaerobic power.
Run four to five intervals of three to four minutes, at near-maximum heart rate, and with equal time jogging to recovery to increase your aerobic power.
With endurance sports, extreme cold reduces both the exercisers core temperature and the maximal aerobic power. Moderate cold exposure can produce a positive effect.
