Effects of Taurine Supplementation on Repetitive Sprint Performance and Exhaustion Time in College Students Under High-Temperature and High-Humidity Conditions

This study is designed to evaluate the effects of acute pre-exercise taurine supplementation at different doses on the performance of college students during exhaustive exercise and subsequent repetitive sprint (RS) activities in a high-temperature, high-humidity environment. Sixteen college students (8 male, 8 female) will participate in a single-blind, randomized, crossover-controlled trial. Participants will be divided into four groups: high-dose taurine (6g), medium-dose taurine (4g), low-dose taurine (1g), and placebo. Key performance metrics such as peak power (PP), mean power (MP), fatigue index (FI), exhaustion time (ET), reverse vertical jump height, heart rate (HR), blood lactate (BLA), and ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) will be measured. The objective of this study is to assess how taurine supplementation influences exercise performance under these challenging environmental conditions. This study will help to better understand taurine's potential effects on exercise performance and contribute to nutritional strategies for athletes exposed to extreme conditions.

This study is designed to evaluate the effects of taurine supplementation on exercise performance under extreme environmental conditions of high temperature and high humidity. The primary goal is to investigate whether taurine supplementation can enhance performance during exhaustive exercise and subsequent repetitive sprints (RS). Sixteen college students (8 male, 8 female) will participate in a single-blind, randomized, crossover-controlled trial. Participants will be divided into four groups receiving either high-dose (6g), medium-dose (4g), low-dose (1g) taurine supplementation, or placebo. The study will involve a protocol with exhaustive exercise followed by six repetitive sprints. Performance metrics such as peak power (PP), mean power (MP), and fatigue index (FI) will be recorded. Additionally, physiological parameters, including heart rate (HR) and blood lactate (BLA), as well as subjective measures like ratings of perceived exertion (RPE), will be monitored. A standardized measurement protocol will be used to ensure consistency and accuracy across trials.
