The Wingate test was described by Ayalon, Inbar and Bar-Or in 1974 (Wingate Institute, Israel). It was designed to measure performance during a short and intensive exercise, that is essentially dependent on the capacity to supply the required energy through the anaerobic systems. The test is non-invasive and measures muscle performance (power) rather than physiological or biochemical variables. After a standardized warm-up, the subject performs a maximal exercise against a resistance for 30 seconds (all-out exercise). This test is commonly performed by cyclists (trackers or sprinters) and skiers.

During a short-duration and high-intensity event, the body recruits the aerobic and anaerobic systems to provide the required energy. The MAOD Test was developed to assess the contribution of both systems by measuring oxygen uptake during such an exercise. This test is preceded by an incremental exercise test to determine VO2max and the relationship between exercise intensity and oxygen uptake. Then, the subject performs a supra-maximal exercise (intensity above VO2max) that he or she has to maintain as long as possible. During the MAOD test, the oxygen uptake but also heart rate and blood lactate are measured. This test is commonly used by long-sprint and middle-distance athletes, but also by rowers and cyclists
