Phosphate Recovery Test (Anaerobic Power)

Coursework – Laboratory Activity–Phosphate Recovery Test

Title: Fitness assessment Outcome: Unit 4 – Outcome 1 Chapter Reference: Chapter 9 Page Reference/s: p.146-167

Procedure;  You are to sprint as far as you can in 5 seconds with a 25 second rest (Work Rest Ratio 1:5).  Your partner is record which cone you passed when the 5 seconds are reached (Numbered 1-10). Eg Cone 6 = 6 points  This is to be repeated until 8 reps are completed.

Results; Rep No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Total Score

Total Score = Add all scores from reps 1-8 = ______

Best Possible Score = Best score x 8 = ______

Total Decrement = Best possible score – Actual score = ______

% Decrement = Total decrement Score x 100 = ______Best Possible Score

Rating (Use table below) = ______Rating % Decrement Score Excellent Less than 12 Good 12-19 Average 20-29 Fair 30-40 Poor More than 40

Training Improvements –

Worked Example Rep No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Total Score 9* 7 5 6 4 4 3 2 40

Total = 40 points Best Score = 9* x8reps = 72 points Total Decrement = 72 – 40 = 32 % Dec = 32/72 x 100 = 44% (Poor phosphate recovery power)
