Filter by:This is a double blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial to evaluate the effect of Maolactin FMR supplementation on post exercise inflammation, exercise recovery and muscle fatigue and pain in an otherwise healthy population of adults 18-65 years old over 10 weeks with 8 weeks of supplementation. This is PART A of the study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare recovery in healthy, active runners. The main questions it aimed to answer were whether 7 day supplementation with Vistula TC attenuated: - muscle function - inflammation - soreness following a marathon run. Participants will either consume a spray-dried tart cherry supplement or a calorie-matched placebo-control for 7 days, and complete a marathon. Participants will perform functional tests, be assessed for their perceptual recovery and markers of inflammation and muscle damage via: - maximal voluntary contractions - counter movement jumps - visual analog scales to assess soreness - blood samples
The purpose of this pilot study is to investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen treatment on recovery from exercise in high performance athletes. Outcome measures will be both physical outcome measures from a force plate, as well as physiologic measures of recovery (including blood lactate and muscle oxygenation) and perceived rates of exertion and recovery.
Dehydration lowers both physical and mental performance if it is severe enough. Performance declines are more pronounced in hot conditions or after prolonged strenuous activity such as exercise. Most individuals drink less than their sweat losses during activity, while some individuals overdrink and develop a sodium deficiency. Water and electrolyte balance must be restored as part of the recovery process after any activity that causes sweating. Plain water causes a decrease in plasma sodium concentration and osmolality, which reduces the desire to drink and increases urine production. Unless the volume ingested exceeds the loss, individuals are in net negative fluid balance throughout the recovery period due to urinary losses. When sodium and potassium are added to rehydration fluids, urine production is reduced in the hours following rehydration. Rehydration is only possible if a volume of fluid equal to or greater than the amount lost through sweat is consumed, together with adequate electrolytes. The test products for this study, TP1 and TP2, are novel hydration beverage formulas. They are an electrolyte drink mixture with five essential vitamins and three times more electrolytes than typical sports beverages. The test products create an osmotic force that permits water to be supplied to the bloodstream sooner in the digestive system by using a specific ratio of sodium, glucose, and potassium. This randomized, placebo-controlled, semi-blind, crossover study will evaluate the effects of the test products on rehydration in healthy adults.
The aim of the clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of two novel hydration products on rehydration following exercise.
The aim of this study is to investigate the short term use of olive extract polyphenols on markers of oxidative stress in response to acute endurance exercise in recreationally active, healthy volunteers.The study will be conducted under laboratory conditions following a 16 day supplemental period. Participants will be required to attend the laboratory for a pre-screening/familiarisation trial followed by assessments PRE (baseline, days 1,2) and POST intervention (days 18,19). Across the intervention, participants will maintain habitual dietary intake/ exercise training. Additionally participants will be randomised in a double-blinded manner to either a placebo or antioxidant-rich supplementation (olive extract water). It is hypothesised that the polyphenols (antioxidants) found within olive extract drink will enhance markers of recovery to an endurance exercise bout compared with the placebo drink.
The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of added protein+leucine or caffeine to 1.2 g/kg/h CHO on the rate of post-exercise muscle glycogen re-synthesis in healthy, recreational athletes. The investigators hypothesize that both interventions (the addition of caffeine or protein+leucine) will lead to higher glycogen re-synthesis compared to the ingestion of CHO only, and that the co-ingestion of protein and leucine will result in the highest muscle glycogen synthesis rates.
