Sports massage with ozonised oil or non-ozonised oil: Comparative effects on recovery parameters after maximal effort in cyclists

This 2013 study by Paoli et al. evaluated the effects of sports massage using ozonised oil (SMOZO) versus non-ozonised oil (SM) and passive rest (PR) on recovery in 15 male competitive cyclists. Following three pre-fatiguing Wingate tests, participants underwent one of the three recovery interventions. Measurements included power output (P),

l-Citrulline supplementation improves O2 uptake kinetics and high-intensity exercise performance in humans

The study titled “L-Citrulline supplementation improves O2 uptake kinetics and high-intensity exercise performance in humans” (Journal of Applied Physiology, 2015, PMID: 26023227) examined the effects of short-term L-citrulline (Cit) supplementation on blood pressure, oxygen uptake (V̇O2) kinetics, and exercise performance in healthy adults. This randomized controlled trial found that Cit
