About this trial
The trial is a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover design. In a randomized order, 20 participants undergo one control and two experimental sessions separated by a 1-week wash out period. During the no exercise/rest session, participants' sleep is monitored via polysomnography following a rest day. During the training sessions participants' sleep is monitored following a high intensity interval training (HIIT) in the late evening (finishing 1h prior to bedtime). During these sessions participants receive 2x 200mg CBD or placebo in a randomized order.
