Reliability and validity of the running anaerobic sprint test (RAST) in soccer players.

Abstract

The running anaerobic sprint test (RAST) was developed in order to provide a field test which could be used to determine an individual's anaerobic power. Previous research has evaluated the use of the RAST with members of the armed forces and basketball teams but due to its increased popularity and potential applicability within the sport of soccer it is important to assess its validity and reliability in this population also.
