Effect of Sodium Bicarbonate on Exercise Performance
This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, crossover trial. The study aimed to assess the effect of sodium bicarbonate on the ability to perform a repeated sprint task by female football players. The researches hypothesis was that sodium bicarbonate increases the ability to remove lactic acid from muscle cells reducing its intracellular accumulation and increasing energetic efficiency resulting in the increase of peak power output, mean power output, or total work or in the decrease of the sprint decrement in each set of the repeated sprints task.
