What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Relative Peak Power (RPP)

    Evaluation of relative peak power during the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test

    Measured: During the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test

  2. Relative Mean Power (RMP)

    Evaluation of relative mean power during the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test.

    Measured: During the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test

  3. Fatigue Index (FI)

    Evaluation of fatigue index during the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test.

    Measured: During the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. ATP-PCr Energy System Contribution (Absolute)

    Evaluation of ATP-PCr energy system contribution in absolute terms (kJ), determined from the fast component of excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) during recovery.

    Measured: During the 5-minute post-exercise recovery period

  2. ATP-PCr Energy System Contribution (Relative)

    Evaluation of ATP-PCr energy system contribution in relative terms (%), determined from the fast component of excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) during recovery.

    Measured: During the 5-minute post-exercise recovery period

  3. Glycolytic Energy System Contribution (Absolute)

    Evaluation of glycolytic energy system contribution in absolute terms (kJ), estimated using delta blood lactate concentration (Δ[BLa]) measured pre-test and post-test.

    Measured: Pre-test and at the 5-minute post-test recovery

  4. Glycolytic Energy System Contribution (Relative)

    Evaluation of glycolytic energy system contribution in relative terms (%), estimated using delta blood lactate concentration (Δ[BLa]) measured pre-test and post-test.

    Measured: Pre-test and at the 5-minute post-test recovery

  5. Oxidative Energy System Contribution (Absolute)

    Evaluation of oxidative energy system contribution in absolute terms (kJ), calculated based on net oxygen volume consumed during the 30-second test (VO₂net).

    Measured: During the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test

  6. Oxidative Energy System Contribution (Relative)

    Evaluation of oxidative energy system contribution in relative terms (%), calculated based on net oxygen volume consumed during the 30-second test (VO₂net).

    Measured: During the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Voluntary Hyperventilation, Post-Activation Performance Enhancement (PAPE) and Wingate Anaerobic Test in people with Anaerobic Performance and Energy System Contributions, run by Manisa Celal Bayar University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 0 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Relative Peak Power (RPP) (time frame: During the 30-second Wingate anaerobic test). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Oct 2026.
