Introduction: Sport drinks are used to improve exercise performance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the acute effect of two energy drink on anaerobic power of female athlete students.
Materials and methods: In this double-blind study 12 female athlete students of university of Tehran (21.1 ± 0.75 years; 56.9 ± 5.9 kg; 167 ± 4.59 cm) participated voluntary during 4 sessions (without drink, placebo, Shark and Jeans energy drinks) in anaerobic RAST test. Maximum, minimum, mean anaerobic powers were calculated. The collected data were analyzed using Repeated Measure tests.
Results: There was no significant difference between maximum (p = 0.557), minimum (p = 0.132), mean (p=0.853) anaerobic power and fatigue index (p=0.13) during 4 stage of RAST test.
Conclusion: Based on the data obtained from current study, it seems that Shark and Jeans energy drinks could not improve the anaerobic powers decline of fatigue of female athletes during RAST test performance.
