Although the use of ergogenic aids is generalized in the whole spectrum of competitive handball (e.g., from recreational to professional players), only a few ergogenic aids have been investigated to test their effectiveness to increase handball performance. In addition, no previous study has summarized the scientific literature on this topic to determine the ergogenic aids with good level of evidence regarding their effectiveness to increase handball physical performance.

Debido a las altas exigencias físicas del balonmano, los jugadores de este deporte suelen utilizar ayudas ergogénicas con el objetivo de mejorar el rendimiento deportivo, mejorar la capacidad para realizar entrenamiento efectivo y/o aumentar el ritmo de la recuperación. Aunque el uso de ayudas ergogénicas está generalizado en todo el espectro de los niveles competitivos del balonmano (e.g. desde jugadores amateurs hasta jugadores profesionales), en la literatura científica solo se ha investigado la efectividad de unas pocas ayudas ergogénicas para las características específicas del rendimiento físico en balonmano. Por otro lado, ningún trabajo ha resumido la información para determinar qué ayudas ergogénicas son efectivas en el balonmano competitivo. Así, el objetivo de esta revisión narrativa fue describir la información científica existente en relación a la prevalencia en el uso de ayudas ergogénicas en jugadores de balonmano así como analizar esta información para identificar las ayudas ergogénicas que pueden aumentar el rendimiento físico en un deporte de carácter intermitente como es el balonmano.Asociacion Didactica AndaluciaMotricidad Humana y Rendimiento Deportivo2022info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/11441/141979reponame:idUS.
