The aim of this study was to examine the impact of prolonged intermittent high-intensity
shuttle running on soreness and markers of muscle damage. Sixteen males took part in the …

Perceived muscle soreness ratings, serum creatine kinase (CK) activity, and myoglobin
levels were assessed in three groups of subjects following two 30-min exercise bouts of …

We tested the hypothesis that running down an incline, during which muscles primarily
perform eccentric contractions, causes greater delayed-onset muscle soreness and greater …

Background Post-exercise muscle soreness is a dull, aching sensation that follows
unaccustomed muscular exertion. Primarily on the basis of previous laboratory-based …

We studied the effects of progressive, short-term training on the delayed muscle soreness
(DMS) and serum creatine kinase (SCK) responses to downhill (-10%) running for 45 min …

The perception of muscle soreness is probably due to the activation of free nerve endings
around muscle fibers. These nerve endings serve as receptors of noxious stimuli associated …

Abstract Howatson, G and Milak, A. Exercise-induced muscle damage following a bout of
sport specific repeated sprints. J Strength Cond Res 23 (8): 2419-2424, 2009-Exercise …

Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) is a common occurrence following activities with a
high eccentric component. Alterations to the torque–velocity relationship following EIMD …

Delayed-onset muscle soreness following unaccustomed or eccentric exercise is associated
with inflammation, tissue necrosis and the release of muscle enzymes (Newham et al. 1983) …

Nine men volunteered to undergo 10% downhill (DT) or 10% uphill (UT) treadmill training at
60% ̇ V_ O_ 2max for 12 minutes on two consecutive days. Four days later the downhill run …
