title: Maximal aerobic and anaerobic muscular power in football players.
abstract: The maximal aerobic muscular power (VO2max) and the anaerobic muscular power max Wpmax) have been measured on 95 fully trained foot-ball players (soccer), from 14 to 16 years of age. These have on the average a maximal "anaerobic" muscular power significantly higher than non-athletic subjects of the same age: on the contrary the maximal "aerobic" power between the two groups does not differ significantly. Differences found beween the players may be related to the different types of performance.
