Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study will aim to investigate the effects of magnesium oil administration on skeletal muscle contractile properties.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Magnesium oil (BetterYou) dermal application
  • Other: Placebo Control
N/A

Detailed Description

Aim: This study will aim to investigate the effects of magnesium oil administration on skeletal muscle contractile properties (SMcp).

Design: Randomized controlled study

Participants: For this purpose, investigators will recruit 40 recreationally active and healthy adults of both sexes (18-35 years of age).

Methods: The experimental leg (EXP) will receive the 10 sprays of magnesium oil (20 mg per spray) that will be topically applied to the skin covering the knee extensor muscles, whereas the control leg (CON) will receive 10 sprays of natural mineral-free oil. The vastus lateralis SMcp will be measured by using a tensiomyography (TMG) device before application (PRE) and after 10 (POST10), 20 (POST20), 30 (POST30), 40 (POST40), and 50 (POST50) minutes of application onset, respectively.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Experimental

Magnesium oil application

Other: Magnesium oil (BetterYou) dermal application
10 sprays (200 mg) of magnesium oil (BetterYou) will be applied to skin covering knee extensor muscles. The magnesium oil will be applied only once

Placebo Comparator: Control

Natural mineral-free oil application

Other: Placebo Control
Natural mineral-free oil (10 sprays) will be applied as the control condition. This will be done only once
