Carbohydrate (CHO) intake during exercise could decrease the subjective perceived exertion and promote recovery; however, the effects of intra-training CHO ingestion remain uncertain in CrossFit® (CF) sessions. Therefore, the aim of this randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial was to investigate the effect of acute CHO intake during a CF session on the delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), the perceived exertion (RPE), performance, recovery, and metabolic markers (capillary lactate and glucose) in CF athletes. Twenty-three male athletes trained in CF ingested CHO (60 g of maltodextrin + fructose) or a placebo (PLA) during a CF session.

L-citrulline (CIT) supplementation seems to improve resistance training performance; yet, whether malate has additive ergogenic effects when combined with CIT is unknown. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial aimed to compare the acute effects of CIT versus citrulline malate (CMA) supplementation on neuromuscular performance and exertion and emotional perceptions in young, trained men and women. 43 (21 women; 24.

The increase in age-related comorbidities, such as cardiometabolic diseases, has become a global health priority. There is a growing need to find new parameters capable of improving the detection of cardiometabolic risk factors, and circulating endocannabinoids (eCBs) are a promising tool in this context. Here, we aimed to investigate the relationship between plasma levels of eCBs and their analogues with body composition and cardiometabolic risk factors in middle-aged adults.

Background And Aims: To determine the effect of a multimodal intervention (nutritional behavior change and physical exercise) on quality of life, chemotherapy response rate and tolerance, histopathological level of the tumor, body composition, and biochemical parameters, in patients diagnosed with breast cancer during neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment, and to compare them with the control group.

Methods: Anticipated 80 patients diagnosed with breast cancer aged 18-70 years will be recruited for this randomized, unblinded clinical trial based on a nutritional behavior change and physical exercise in patients during the approximately 6 months in which the patient receives neoadjuvant treatment. Participants will be randomly allocated (1:1) to one of two groups (intervention or control).

High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a time-efficient strategy to improve fitness and performance. Whereas the multiple and negative effects of high intake of alcohol have been widely studied, the effect of moderate alcohol doses after exercise is not clear, and it is currently under debate. For that, a total of 80 young healthy adults are studied and allocated into 5 groups, each including 16 participants.
