topicBeta Alanine Cognitive Performance Randomized Trial
claimβ-Alanine (BA) elevates skeletal muscle carnosine and may improve repeated high-intensity performance; however, evidence in kickboxing is limited.

topicBeta Alanine Cognitive Performance Randomized Trial
claimWe then integrate evidence on the ergogenic effects of various dietary interventions with existing knowledge on perception of effort, focusing on how these interventions may limit the development of fatigue during endurance exercise and thereby influence effort perception.
