Conclusion
fatigue
Overall, the present study showed that repeated CMR with low and high doses can be a useful strategy for improving futsal-specific endurance performance. However, higher dose of CMR appears to have more profound effects on performance improvement than lower doses. In addition, the findings of this study indicated that CMR can maintain the performance of the explosive power of the lower body during FIET-induced fatigue and accelerate its recovery. Also, according to the results of the present study, it is possible to give this practical suggestion to futsal players to use CMR in time-outs and half-time to delay fatigue and enhance power and intermittent performance. It is suggested that future studies pay more attention to identifying the underlying mechanisms of CMR’s effect on sports performance.
