: The goal of the study was evaluation of the impact of the pharmaceutical preparations Ripronat and Rotavit Royal on the physical working capacity and psychomotor performance of the young football players during their basic preparatory period of physical conditioning. Blinded placebo controlled study was performed on 50 male football players (mean age 19,8 ± 3,2 years). The football players were divided into three groups: study group (n=30), placebo group (n=10) and control group (n=10). Study group in turn were divided in two subgroups: subgroup A (n=15, receiving ripronat and rotavit royal) and subgroup B (n=15, receiving only ripronat). In all groups following tests were performed before and after four weeks of the medical administration: 1.Watt max bicycle test. 2. Wingate cykletest. 3.
