I think you may have to rely on experienced trainers rather than research papers as the research may not have been done or be poorly designed. The other option is to experiment on yourself and find what works for you.

One thing I would expect, though, is that unless you're a professional athlete chasing that last 1% of performance, the difference in effects is unlikely to be noticeable.

This is what I am starting to see. It looks like most "research" out there is the typical "20 college students for one semester" case with flawed data and questionable approaches.
