- FASTER MUSCLE RECOVERY – Creatine kinase, a key indicator of muscle strain or damage, returned to pre-exercise levels 24 hours after exercise in horses receiving Purina® SuperSport™ supplement. Levels remained significantly elevated in non-supplemented horses at 24 hours after exercise.
- INCREASED EXERCISE CAPACITY – During graded exercise testing, supplemented horses showed a significant increase in top speed and time to fatigue compared to non-supplemented horses. Supplemented horses also improved their oxygen-utilizing capacity (VO2 max) and anaerobic threshold (VLa4) during the graded exercise test, while non-supplemented horses did not.
- A SUBJECTIVE MUSCLE MASS SCORING SYSTEM ALSO SHOWED AN INCREASE IN THE OVERALL MUSCLING OF SUPPLEMENTED HORSES – Supplemented horses had greater forearm muscle circumference and less body fat than non-supplemented horses. A subjective muscle mass scoring system also showed positive differences in the overall muscling of supplemented horses.
