Effect of carbohydrate mouth rinse on muscle strength and muscle endurance: a systematic review with meta-analysis
maltodextrin, mouthwash, 1RM, maximum voluntary contraction, repeatition test
The effect of carbohydrate (CHO) mouth rinse on performance was first investigated in 2004, raising the hypothesis that CHO mouth rinse has its ergogenic effect through a central mechanism. From these findings, a heterogeneity of exercise protocols, such as cycling and running against the clock; sprints; intermittent exercises; high intensity exercises; isometric muscle strength exercises; dynamic muscle strength exercises and muscle resistance exercises, were used to investigate the effects of CHO mouth rinse on performance. Considering the possible effects of CHO rinsing in delaying the fall in peak torque, in the development of premature fatigue and in increasing power that contribute to a better physical performance, there is a CHO rinse potential strategy for strength exercises. However, still little investigated. Thus, this dissertation presents a review chapter, addressing the effect of CHO rinsing on high-intensity exercises, as well as a systematic review with meta-analysis that evaluates the studies that investigated the effect of CHO rinsing on strength and endurance. muscular.
