Description It has been well established, that specific nutritional strategies before, during and after exercise maximise physical performance and adaptive training outcomes. It is evident that several nutritional concepts such as the role of nutrition in facilitating the skeletal muscle adaptive response to exercise or studies exploring ergogenic potential of ß-alanine and bicarbonate supplementation are of considerable scientific interest. Additionally, the ergogenic potential of mouth-rinsing with carbohydrate solutions has been well documented. From this perspective, the aim of the review-article is to consider some of the present-day sport nutrition scientific topics. Promotion of training adaptions, such as endurance training in glycogen depleted state, performance enhancement potential of novel ergogenics and dietary regimens will be discussed. Real sport environment and practical recommendations are particularly strengthened.
