Study to Examine the Effects of ATP Supplementation on Muscle Excitability and Reaction Time During and Following a Repeated Sprint Bout
Completed · Not applicable · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Muscle Fatigue Caused by Repetitive Muscle Exercise
In brief
We hypothesize that adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) supplementation will be able to enhance motor unit recruitment while simultaneously blunting the decline in power and reaction time that is typically seen during repetitive sprints. This will give researchers a better understanding of the mechanism by which ATP supplementation can augment power, especially under high fatiguing conditions.
