Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Methods: A total of 13 elite swimmers (6 girls and 7 boys) participated in this randomised, double-blind study. In 2 different trials, the swimmers ingested an injection of Beet-It (70 ml placebo (PL) or an injection of Beet-It 70 ml beetroot juice (BJ)) 3 hours before undergoing a 6x100m crawl intermittent maximal speed performance test.
