Study Summary
In the past, dietary nitrate supplementation has been shown to have clinical benefits in the treatment of cardiovascular issues. More recently, however, the focus of nitrate supplementation has shifted to focus of human performance, and has shown to increase the time to exhaustion during maximal intensity exercise and lower the cost of oxygen consumption during submaximal intensity exercise. Acutely, nitrate supplementation in the form of beetroot juice has been shown to increase strength measurements, as well as increase the time to complete a 2000 meter rowing ergometer test. However, to the author's knowledge, there are no studies that link the relationship between multi-day nitrate supplementation and the rowing test or the nitrate's effect on strength when in the salt form. Additionally, to the author's knowledge, no evidence has been published which relates dietary nitrate supplementation and its effects on a CrossFit circuit workout. Our central hypothesis is that six days of dietary nitrate supplementation will improve strength, endurance, a power more than a placebo in male CrossFit athletes.
