I love to read research studies on supplements because I want to know how the supplement performs. Twenty-four male soccer players ingested either Cit + Arg or placebo (both 1.2 g/day each) for 6 days. On day 7, they ingested Cit + Arg 1 h before performing a 10-min full-power pedaling test on a bicycle ergometer. Power output was significantly greater with Cit + Arg than in the placebo group. The conclusion was that seven days of oral Citrulline (1.2 g/d) and Arginine (1.2 g/d) ingestion improved 10-min cycling performance and the perception of physical exertion in male collegiate soccer players. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/30847640
