Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: An uninterrupted training time of at least 1 year in the subjects' regular exercise modality (either the person is still training or interrupted the training period during the last year, and with no more than 4 months of detraining). A good exercise technique of the assessed movement patterns (running, squatting, and jumping). Exclusion Criteria: Not being 18-30 years old. Having any relevant medical condition. Pregnancy. Smoking. Regular medication consumption / Medication consumption the days before the sessions during the study. Other supplementation regular consumption / Other supplementation consumption during the study (excluding sports foods, provided that their goal and nutrients have the objective of substituting the ingestion of regular food (e.g., isotonic drinks, carbohydrates gels, protein powder...), without adding other components that may act as ergogenic substances). Habitual caffeine consumption of >25mg/day-0,99mg/kg/day.
