Beta2-mimetics such as Salbutamol have been shown to have ergogenic effects. Acute and
chronic inhaled or oral doses of Salbutamol have been shown to increase whole body exercise
and muscle performances. The underlying mechanisms are however unclear. Some data suggest
that Salbutamol may have some effects on the central nervous system which may explain the
improved exercise and neuromuscular performances. The present study aims to assess the
effects of acite inhaled or oral Salbutamol intake on the neuromuscular system by using
neurostimulation techniques and magnetic resonance imaging.
