The purpose of this study was to verify the existence of learning effect in results of Wingate repeated tests. Twelve cyclists were submitted to two Wingate Tests (TW1 and TW2) with an interval of a week. The added resistance was equivalent to 10% of body mass, the routines were planned to reproduce the same conditions in both tests. Even though the high correlation (0,92), the results showed significant difference for Mean Power (PM), in absolute values (TW1: 579,7 ± 91,0 W vs TW2: 616,9 ± 102,2) and relative values, (TW1: 8,3 ± 0,8 W/kg vs TW2: 8,8 ± 0,9 W/kg) favoring the second test. The evidence demonstrated the existence of learning effect affecting results of anaerobic power.
