Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Run time

    The 5 km run is performed on a 200 m long indoor track. The running time (total time and laps times) of each runner is measured by one qualified timekeeper, which does not change between trials. The time is measured to the nearest 0.1 s with manual stopwatch.

    Change between values before and after 7 days of crossover.

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Heart rate during running

    Change between values before and after 7 days of crossover.

  • Rating of perceived exertion

    Change between values before and after 7 days of crossover.

  • Blood lactate

    Change between values before and after 7 days of crossover.

  • Reactive strength index

    Change between values before and after 7 days of crossover.

  • Subjective perceived muscle soreness

    Change between values before and after 7 days of crossover.

  • +6 more secondary outcomes
