Sodium bicarbonate (SB) is one of the ergogenic aids that enhance short-duration, high-intensity sports performance by improving the buffering system. However, studies suggest that SB may also be beneficial for prolonged high-intensity endurance exercises, where anaerobic glycolysis plays a role. The commonly used SB dose in these studies (0.3 g/kg) often leads to gastrointestinal (GI) discomfort, necessitating alternative approaches. Among various protocols, consuming SB with a carbohydrate-rich meal has been identified as an effective strategy to mitigate GI distress. Although some studies indicate a positive effect of SB on performance, research involving female athletes remains limited, comprising only 7.4% of the total studies. Given that women generally have lower muscle mass and fewer type II muscle fibers, their glycolytic capacity might be lower, and SB could have distinct physi
