Absolute peak anaerobic power is how much power (in Watts) a person can exert at one time.

There are many ways that absolute peak power can be measured but a common way is a 30 sec wingate test which is done on an exercycle.

Absolute peak power differs from relative peak power as relative peak power takes into account the persons weight, where as absolute doesnt.

Therefore the bigger and stronger you are, the higher your absolute Pp would generally be. But when converted to relative Pp (absolute Pp/weight), you have a Pp relative to each person - not worrying about the persons own weight so you can compare using this.
