Zusammenfassung: | Caffeine can stimulate the central nervous system and thus increase exercise tolerance throughout rating perceived exertion (RPE) changes and it can change the pace strategy (PS) during a physical task. The aim of this study was to check if caffeine supplementation might promote changes in PS during a laboratory run test (LRT). In a double-blind, crossover, randomized and counterbalanced fashion, fifteen healthy-male (age: 24 [+ or -] 4.4 years; [VO.sub.2]max. 53 [+ or -] 5 ml.[Kg.sup.-1].[min.sup.(-1])) ingested 6 mgx[kg.sup.(-1]) of CAF or placebo supplementation, 60 minutes before the LRT. The LRT was three-minutes sets (at fixed speed, 1 km/h above Onset Blood Lactate Accumulation) until volitional exhaustion; Rest Time Interval (RTI) between sets were chosen by the participants in the first test (ranging from 30 to 60s). RPE, Heart Rate (HR) and blood plasma lactate concentration ([La]p) were collected at rest, immediately after each set and at the end of test. Time to exhaustion was higher for CAF (p= 0.014). RTI between sets was significantly lower in caffeine (p= 0.048) and this decreased significantly the time to perform a same distance (p= 0.034). Overall HR and [La]p was similar for both conditions (p= 0.252, p= 0.129, respectively). Despite similar overall RPE throughout test (p= 0.380), in caffeine, there was not a RPE abrupt increase similar to placebo. Caffeine supplementation can positively influence running PS (to decrease the RTI required for recovery between moments of high-intensity exercise), as well as, can make an individual run further (in the same event). Key words: Time to Exhaustion. Pace Strategy. Ergogenic Aid. Rating Perceived Exertion. A cafeína pode estimular o sistema nervoso central e aumentar a tolerância ao exercício por meio de mudanças na percepção subjetiva de esforço (PSE), isso pode mudar a estratégia de ritmo (ER) durante uma corrida. Nosso objetivo foi verificar se a suplementação de cafeína promove mudanças na ER durante um teste de corrida de laboratório (TCL). De modo duplo-cego, cruzado, randomizado e contrabalançado, quinze homens saudáveis (idade: 24 [+ or -] 4,4 anos, [VO.sub.2]max. 53 [+ or -] 5 ml.[Kg.sup.(-1]).[min.sup.-1]) ingeriram 6 mg/[kg.sup.-1] de cafeína ou placebo, 60 minutos antes do TCL. O TCL consistiu de séries de três minutos (velocidade fixada à 1 km/h acima do "Onset Blood Lactate Accumulation") até fadiga volicional; O Intervalo de Tempo de Descanso (ITD) entre as séries foi escolhido pel |
