Abstract

Following the production of commercial multi-ingredient pre-workout products, there has been a need for the progression of the scientific literature surrounding performance enhancement of MIPS. The proposed physical and psychological benefits of MIPS are extensive, but only a few have been consistently demonstrated to enhance performance. Within those studies, only three previous studies have studied female populations. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the effects of various doses of MIPS compared to caffeine-only and a placebo on physiological (repetitions to failure) and psychological (OMNI-RES, Rating of Fatigue, and exercise enjoyment) responses during resistance training in recreationally-trained females. This study was constructed of 6 total sessions; a baseline testing session, a familiarization session, and four exercise/supplementation protocol sessions. Participants were randomly assigned to one of the four supplementation protocols, with at least 72 hours between each session. The exercise protocol was composed of a standardized dynamic warm-up, 4 sets of progressive load, with the final set of repetitions to failure at 75% of the participant’s measured 1RM. This protocol was used for both leg press and bench. Following the completion of each set, participants completed three questionnaires in order to assess psychological performance. Data was collected from January until mid-March. Following data collection, outliers and normality will be assessed. Differences in repetitions to failure due to supplementation protocol were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA. Differences in RPE, exercise enjoyment, and ROF were analyzed using a 1x4 one-way ANOVA. When necessary, Bonferroni post hoc analyses were used to determine where significant differences exist. All data was analyzed in SPSS v27.0 with an alpha level set at 0.05.
