The purpose of this study is to determine if an active recovery of a long duration at a moderate intensity or a passive recovery is more beneficial for subsequent anaerobic performance by tracking blood lactate and comparing anaerobic performance variables across Wingate tests. Currently, there is a lack of research on the effect of a longer duration active recovery protocol on blood lactate levels and power output in repeated Wingate tests as compared to passive recovery. A significant interaction was found between recovery and time for blood lactate (F = 6.935; p = 0.000). Blood Lactate levels were significantly …
