Summary: The study found that ischemic preconditioning (IPC) can reduce the decrease in muscle torque complexity during fatigue at the neural level, leading to an extended time to task failure. IPC has an impact on the changes in EMG amplitude and oxygen consumption rate during muscle fatigue development.

Summary: This paper provides an overview of the bioavailability, efficacy, and regulatory status of creatine monohydrate (CrM) and other marketed forms of creatine. It concludes that only CrM has substantial evidence supporting its bioavailability, efficacy, and safety. The paper recommends the use of CrM in dietary supplements and calls for research to substantiate claims about the efficacy and safety of other forms of creatine before they are marketed.

Summary: The consumption of beetroot juice rich in nitrates has been shown to improve sports performance, particularly in fatigue resistance during repeated sprints. Different dosages have been proposed for chronic and acute intake, with chronic intake leading to better results over a period of days, while acute intake closer to physical exertion may also yield effective outcomes. This systematic review reveals potential benefits in enhancing fatigue resistance during repeated sprints by consuming nitrates derived from beetroot juice.

Summary: This study found that acute caffeine consumption improved muscle strength performance in the elbow and knee joints even with chronic caffeine intake. Resistance training intervention resulted in significant improvements in upper and lower body strength, with similar effects between the caffeine and placebo groups.

Summary: This study demonstrates that chewing caffeine gum significantly improves exercise tolerance in well-trained runners. Despite decreased neuromuscular responses after exhaustion, athletes were able to run a longer distance in the caffeine condition, suggesting a neuromuscular contribution to the performance enhancement induced by caffeine.

Summary: The study found that caffeine can reduce average heart rate during submaximal exercise, significantly shorten time-trial completion time, and decrease perceived exercise intensity. These effects are not influenced by ADORA2A or CYP1A2 genotypes.

Summary: The meta-analysis found that caffeine ingestion significantly enhances rate of force development (RFD), particularly during resistance exercises. Higher doses of caffeine showed larger effects on RFD improvement. However, the effects were not significant during countermovement jump tests.
