Abstract: Introduction: Aerobic gymnastics is a sport that has consistently grown over the previous decades, and its practice demands its athletes to perform complex and high-intensity movements. Objective: Study was to analyze whether ginger supplementation had an ergogenic eff ect on the anaerobic power of limbs (PAMI) in aerobic gymnastic athletes. Methods: A randomized double-blind placebo controlled trial was conducted with nine athletes (23.11 + 4.14 years, 1.63 + 0.09 m, 60.51 + 7.38 kg) from the Brazilian National Team of Aerobic Gymnastics. After ingesting 400 mg of Zingiber offi cinale or placebo for seven days, the subjects underwent an anaerobic power test (RAST). Peak Velocity and Peak power (m/s and W), average and minimum power (W) and fatigue index (W/s and %) data were obtained from the RAST. Results: After verifying the no normality of the sample, the Mann-Whitney was applied, but no signifi cant diff erences were found in the peak velocity of the ginger supplementation (6.28 ± 0.41 m/s; 445.28 ± 117.15 W) compared to placebo (6.22 ± 0.45 m/s; 425.95 ± 130.39 W). Conclusions: It is concluded that ingesting 400 mg of Z. offi cinale does not have an ergogenic eff ect on the anaerobic power of the lower limbs of aerobic gymnastic athletes.
