Resource Title Dose-response effects of carbohydrate mouth rinse concentration on resistance training volume, perceived exertion, and heart rate in trained men
Date Issued January 2024
Abstract The aim of the current study was to investigate the dose-response effects of carbohydrate mouth rinsing (CMR) on resistance training volume, perceived exertion, and heart rate. Twelve males (22.25 ± 0.97 years old) with resistance training experience (26 ± 9.92 months) completed 3 experimental trials. Participants performed 3 sets of 4 exercises (deadlift, barbell back squat, bench press, military press) to volitional fatigue, while rinsing their mouth for 10s with either a taste-matched non-caloric sweetener (PLA), a 6%, or a 12% maltodextrin solution (CHO) once before the first exercise and once again before the third exercise for each trial. Repetitions done, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and heart rate (HR) were recorded after every set. Results showed a non-significant effect of CMR concentration on resistance training volume with the computed p values for deadlift (p = 0.932), barbell back squat (p = 0.482), bench press (p = 0.343), military press (p = 0.743), and on RPE the computed values for deadlift (p = 0.130), barbell back squat (p = 0.331), bench press (p = 0.313), and military press (p = 0.230). The effect of CMR concentration on HR showed significant difference with the computed values for deadlift (p = 0.003) and bench press (p = 0.047), there was no difference found for the barbell back squat (p = 0.064), and military press (p = 0.086). The result of this study proves that a 6% maltodextrin solution is the optimal CMR concentration in eliciting an ergogenic effect on HR in resistance training.
