Help With Exercise Performance
Muscle function, and exercise performance, can be affected by oxidative stress. Similarly, the abnormal mitochondrial function can lower muscular energy, making it difficult for muscles to contract properly and exercise for long periods of time.
CoQ10 improves mitochondrial activity and reduces oxidative stress in the cells, which can help with exercise performance. For instance, one research looked at CoQ10's impact on physical exercise. Oxidative stress was reduced in those who took 1,200 mg of CoQ10 per day for 60 days. CoQ10 supplementation (60–100 mg/day for 4–8 weeks) enhances aerobic power, anaerobic threshold, exercise performance, and/or recovery after exercise in both trained athletes and untrained individuals, according to numerous studies. Furthermore, supplementing with CoQ10 can help improve exercise performance by increasing power and decreasing fatigue during exercise.
