Popis: International audience; Introduction: Although 15% of the total race duration in cycling or triathlon can be performed at intensities beyond VO2max, little is known about the effectiveness of dietary NO3- supplementation on tolerance to supramaximal intensity intermittent exercise in endurance athletes. Our aim was therefore to determine whether dietary NO3- supplementation enhances the tolerance to supramaximal intensity intermittent exercise in elite endurance-trained athletes.Methods: Using a randomized, single-blind, cross-over design, 9 elite endurance athletes 3.7 years, maximal oxygen uptake performed a supramaximal intensity intermittent exercise test following either a 3-day beetroot juice supplementation (BJ, NO3- content of 680 mg L−1), or a placebo supplementation (PL, NO3- content 60 mL kg−1 min−1).
