Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1 – It is expected that the acute consumption of capsules containing taurine will improve physical performance parameters during the repeated sprint test (RSA) and the Carminatti test (T-CAR) when compared to a placebo in male professional soccer players.;Outcome found 1 – It was observed that the acute consumption of capsules containing taurine did not improve physical performance parameters during the repeated sprint test (RSA) and the Carminatti test (T-CAR) when compared to a placebo in male professional soccer players. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 2 – It is expected that the acute consumption of taurine capsules will reduce the subjective perception of effort after performing the repeated sprint ability (RSA) test and the Carminatti test (T-CAR).;Expected outcome 3 – It is expected that the acute consumption of taurine capsules will result in a smaller increase in blood lactate levels after the physical performance test.;Outcome found 2 – It was observed that the acute consumption of capsules containing taurine does not reduce the subjective perception of effort after performing the repeated sprint test (RSA) and the Carminatti test (T-CAR).;Outcome found 3 – It was observed that the acute consumption of capsules containing taurine does not lead to a smaller increase in blood lactate levels after the physical performance test. | — |
