Beta-Alanine Sprint Performance Meta-AnalysisMethodological quality was assessed using the Cochrane RoB 2.0 tool, and the certainty of evidence was evaluated via the GRADE framework.1Liang W (2026)No ergogeniceffect of β-alanine on repeated sprint ability: a systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Beta-Alanine Sprint Performance Meta-AnalysisConclusion In conclusion, chronic β-alanine supplementation does not provide a clear improvement in total work capacity, maximal anaerobic power, or fatigue resistance during repeated sprinting.1Liang W (2026)No ergogeniceffect of β-alanine on repeated sprint ability: a systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Beta-Alanine Sprint Performance Meta-AnalysisObjective Chronic beta-alanine supplementation is a prevalent nutritional strategy to augment intracellular buffering capacity via elevated muscle carnosine.1Liang W (2026)No ergogeniceffect of β-alanine on repeated sprint ability: a systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Beta-Alanine Sprint Performance Meta-AnalysisWhile its ergogenic efficacy in continuous, high-intensity exercise is established, its impact on repeated sprint ability (RSA)-governed by extremely brief work bouts and phosphocreatine (PCr) kinetics-remains equivocal.1Liang W (2026)No ergogeniceffect of β-alanine on repeated sprint ability: a systematic review and multilevel meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Beta-Alanine Sprint Performance Meta-AnalysisEndurance performance improved only with protein (0.99; 0.16-1.83; 94.3%; very low).1Deng B (2025)Dietary Supplement Strategies During Conditioning Training in Athletes: A Network Meta-Analysis of Peak and Mean Anaerobic Power, VO<sub>2</sub>max, and Endurance Performance.
Beta-Alanine Sprint Performance Meta-AnalysisDietary supplements are often used during training to support energy provision, recovery, and adaptation, yet effects on peak and mean anaerobic power, VO 2 max, and endurance performance remain inconsistent.1Deng B (2025)Dietary Supplement Strategies During Conditioning Training in Athletes: A Network Meta-Analysis of Peak and Mean Anaerobic Power, VO<sub>2</sub>max, and Endurance Performance.
Beta-Alanine Sprint Performance Meta-AnalysisUnlike prior syntheses centred on neuromuscular outcomes (strength and hypertrophy), this study compared six common supplements-protein, creatine, β-alanine, HMB, vitamin D, and nitrate-on energy-system performance (peak anaerobic power, mean anaerobic power, VO 2 max, and endurance performance) using network meta-analysis.1Deng B (2025)Dietary Supplement Strategies During Conditioning Training in Athletes: A Network Meta-Analysis of Peak and Mean Anaerobic Power, VO<sub>2</sub>max, and Endurance Performance.
