The survey and its cover text (including study rationale, purpose of online survey, link to survey, deadline, whether to further circulate) were piloted amongst the AG (50% responded), which led to minor revisions.

Many of the performance-based studies in this era also proposed a similar study rationale; one based on previous equivocal performance outcomes and/or on the attenuation of the decline in muscle pH proposed to occur during high rates of glycolytic flux after NaHCO3 ingestion [39, 40, 43 45].
