Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Caffeine supplementation has been recognized such as an useful strategy for improving performance in intermittent sports, however caffeine ingestion in futsal has been barely studied. In this randomized placebo-controlled study, we investigated the effects of acute caffeine supplementation in improving neuromuscular performance and physical match activity in futsal players.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

To date, no previous investigation has studied the effect of acute caffeine ingestion on futsal performance during futsal-specific testing and during a simulated match. Therefore, the aim of this investigation was to establish the effects of acute caffeine intake on futsal-specific tests (e.g. futsal kicking velocity) and match-play running performance in male futsal players.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Caffeine

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Gelatine capsule with caffeine (3 mg/kg body mass of caffeine) (Bulk Powders, London, United Kingdom). The capsule containing the treatment was ingested with 150 mL of water 60 minutes before the onset of the experiment to allow substance absorption.

Placebo supplementation

Acute placebo supplementation

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Placebo

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Gelatine capsule with placebo (Cellulose; Guinama, Valencia, Spain). The capsule containing the treatment was ingested with 150 mL of water 60 minutes before the onset of the experiment to allow substance absorption.
