Effects of sodium bicarbonate ingestion on prolonged intermittent exercise
Article Abstract:
Results indicate that the ingestion of sodium bicarbonate prior to exercise improves subsequenct performance as revealed in sprint performance during prolonged intermittent cycling. Data show significant effect between trials in the peak power relative to sprint 1 performance. Sprint 2 increased by 11.5 plus or minus 5% and 1.8 plus or minus 9.5% for bicarbonate and sodium chloride, respectively.

The effects of work:rest duration on physiological and perceptual responses during intermittent exercise and performance
Article Abstract:
A study determined the ratio of work and rest to high-performance levels after intermittent exercise taking into account blood glucose and lactate levels. The results showed that long work and rest ratios had a greater metabolic and perceptual strain than shorter work-rest durations.

Effects of sodium bicarbonate on VO2 kinetics during heavy exercise
Article Abstract:
The effect of blood pH on VO2 kinetics during heavy exercise using sodium carbonate was investigated. The slower time constant during the rapid component suggested that oxygen delivery is a limiting factor of VO2 kinetics during the onset of heavy exercise.
