11 men and women kayakers took part to the research and time differnces in different modes were measured: during training, competition and in on the cheap paddling.
Half of the men drank 70 ml of beet juice and the other half did not; the supplement had a limited effect on the distance covered but it was effective with the on the cheap paddling. With the women kayakers it was used more beet juice that is 140 ml: on a 500 meter distance there was a significant performance improvement of 1,7%.
