Abstract

Purpose: Anaerobic power, which is one of the components of physical fitness and vital motor ability in sports requiring short and long term activities with maximum power output. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of acute consumption of 6 milligrams of melatonin on anaerobic power and short-term performance of girls Student was a nurse. Methods: Twelve (21.5 ± 1.29 years old, 58.63 ± 2.69 pounds, 39.8 ± 4.17 mg / kg / min) were selected randomly and crossed to 2 The supplementation phase (6 mg melatonin) and placebo (starch capsule) were evaluated. The anaerobic power was measured by the Wingate test, the upper and lower explosive strength, respectively, by means of the Madison Wing Ball and jump length, as well as the power of the duplex by the dynamometer, respectively. Results: The results showed that using 6 milligrams of melatonin, a significant increase in anaerobic power was observed in melatonin compared to placebo (P <0.05); however, short-term performance after melatonin administration did not change significantly (P≥0.05). Conclusion: The short-term use of melatonin seems to increase the anxiety of female students in nursing education, but it does not affect the long-term short-term efficacy.
