“…The first aim of this study was to assess upper limb force asymmetry during an all‐out, maximal intensity 30s anaerobic Wingate test on an arm‐crank ergometer. Consistent with studies of lower limb asymmetry, 28 the authors hypothesized that asymmetry would not increase during the exercise.…”

“…The total force asymmetry (SItot) was calculated using Equation 3.1 according to Robinson et al (1987) used on kinematic gait analysis for the comparison with other studies. 28 According to Smak et al (1999) who compute cycling joint force asymmetries for positive and negative values separately, the authors calculated asymmetry during the pulling (SIpull) and pushing (SIpush) phases (Equations 3.2 and 3.3, respectively). 29 To compare the evolution during the WAnT_30s without the impact of interparticipant sign difference, the absolute was calculated value of the difference between the forces on each side.…”

Introduction Interlimb asymmetry of strength and/or motor coordination could limit the performance of wheelchair athletes or increase their risk of injury. Studies of interlimb asymmetry in the lower limbs have shown high between‐subject variability that does not depend on the side of dominance and that does not change with fatigue. Upper limb asymmetry is particularly large in manual wheelchair athletes with a lower degree of impairment. The aim of this study was to evaluate interlimb asymmetry of forces developed during an upper limb Wingate anaerobic test, the effects of fatigue on force, and differences between high‐ and low‐point players. Method Twenty‐five wheelchair basketball players (13 females and 12 males) of male and female national French teams performed a 30s anaerobic Wingate test on an arm ergometer. Participants were classified into two functional categories, high‐point (classed from 3 to 4.5) and low‐point (classed from 1 to 2.5), according to the International Wheelchair Basketball Federation classification. Left and right arm forces were measured during the pushing and pulling phases at peak power, 10s, and the end of the 30s test. Results Upper limb asymmetry changed with fatigue during each phase. Force asymmetry differed between peak power, 10s and 30s, with no consistent increase or decrease. Asymmetry did not differ significantly between low‐ and high‐point players but tended to be greater in high‐point players. Asymmetry tended to be greater in the females, with significant differences between the males and females in the push phase. Conclusion Inter‐subject variability was high, but forces were asymmetric for most participants, especially females. The Wingate anaerobic test could highlight problematic asymmetries that might impact daily life or sports performance.
