Key Evidence #1
Public scholarly dataCitation signal: 75
observational

Mechanical links between skeletal muscle fatigue, proton accumulation (or metabolic acidosis) and NaHCO3 supplementation have been identified to provide a more targeted, evidence-based approach to direct future research, as well as provide practitioners with a

Key Evidence #2
Public scholarly dataCitation signal: 62
observational

It is suggested that NaHCO3 supplementation could prevent the decline in skilled tennis performance after a simulated match.

Key Evidence #3
Public scholarly dataCitation signal: 50
observational

The mechanism for improved exercise with SB was consistently in place prior to exercise, although this only resulted in a likely improvement in one trial, and results suggest that caution should be taken when interpreting the results from single trials as to t

CAP can mitigate GI symptoms induced with SOL and should be ingested earlier to induce similar acid-base changes, and may be more ergogenic in those who experience severe GI distress with SOL, although this warrants further investigation.

Supplementing with SB prior to performing maximal sprint swimming with repetitions under 60 s improves performance, however, co-supplementation with SB and BA did not confer any added benefit on maximal swim performance.

It is suggested that the response to NaH CO3 may be gender-specific and progressive low-dose NaHCO3 supplementation allows the advantageous strengthening of wrestling-specific performance in males and can also lead to maintenance of high anaerobic power mainly
