topicL-Citrulline Exercise Recovery Randomized Trial
claimFor example, citrulline supplementation has been reported to improve cycling time-trial performance and oxygen uptake kinetics [,], while acute CM ingestion has also been associated with improved resistance exercise performance and reduced ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) [,].

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.
