Clinical Trial Summary

This study was a randomized, double-blind, crossover design for 3 weeks. In the first week, a researcher explained all the experimental procedures to the participants. In the following two weeks, the participants attended the Exercise Physiology laboratory to be assessed in 2 rowing ergometer sessions, separated from each other by a washout period of 7 days, under the same environmental conditions. In both strictly identical sessions, the participants randomly ingested beetroot juice (BRJ) or placebo (PL) 3 hours before the start of the tests.


Clinical Trial Description

Three hours after BRJ or PL intake, the participants began the 2,000-meter rowing ergometer test. Before starting (pretest) and at the end of the tests (posttest), blood oxygen saturation, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and blood lactate measurements were taken. During the rowing ergometer tests, performance parameters and cardiorespiratory variables were recorded. ;
