Accordingly, we investigated the experiences of 89 female athletes (n = 48 cyclists/triathletes, n = 19 race walkers, n = 22 National Rugby League Indigenous Women's Academy players) who participated in four separate studies of sports performance with different methodological characteristics. Participants completed a questionnaire upon study completion that queried prior research participation, reasons for participating and experiences during the current study. Across all 89 athletes, 81% were first-time research participants, with the primary barriers cited as a perceived lack of opportunities or being unaware of opportunities (93%). Participants rated an interest in the research outcome as the most important aspect influencing their decision to participate (90 ± 14 [out of 100]), followed by the opportunities to receive personalized results (84 ± 20) and education (78 ± 27). Most participants (87%) stated that they would apply the study findings to their sports involvement, while the remaining 13% reported that they required support to understand the application of results. The majority (94%) of participants indicated a willingness to participate in future studies, while the research experience was rated positively at a mean 77 out of 100. Ultimately, our findings uncovered a perceived lack of opportunity as the primary barrier to female athlete research participation.

Current guidelines recommend interrupting water consumption 10 min before saliva sampling to avoid inaccurate, diluted concentrations of the biomarkers being examined. However, the impact of saliva dilution on salivary cortisol and testosterone levels has not been examined yet. This was a randomized, crossover experiment. Fourteen active healthy males completed three separate cycle-bout trials, where a set volume of water (250 ml) was consumed 10, 5, or 1 min before saliva sampling. Saliva was collected pre-, post-, and 30 min postexercise. No differences were observed in resting samples in any of the trials (p < .05). However, salivary cortisol increased from pre- to postexercise in the 10 (+52%, p = 0.022) and 5-min trial (+36%, p = .005) only. Salivary testosterone also increased in 10 (+34%, p = .005), 5 (+37%, p < .001), and 1-min trials (+24%, p < .035). This study proposes that consuming water up to 1 min before providing a saliva sample will not dilute the sample, allowing for an accurate determination of salivary cortisol and testosterone concentration levels. Practically, the 10-min fluid abstinence required before saliva sampling in the previous guidelines could be reduced to 1 min; however, if examining the response of salivary cortisol to an exercise trail, a fluid abstinence of 5 min may be more appropriate.

Sixteen endurance athletes completed two trials of 3-hr running at 60% V˙O2max in 30 °C at baseline (T1) and following an 8-week supplementation period (T2), with 16 g/day prebiotic (PREBIOTIC) or matched placebo (PLACEBO).
