Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for lower extremity injury: a review of the literature
TL;DR: Future prospective studies are needed using sufficient sample sizes of males and females, including collection of exposure data, and using established methods for identifying and classifying injury severity to conclusively determine addtional risk factors for lower extremity injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage and Potential Mechanisms for the Repeated Bout Effect
TL;DR: There is little consensus as to the actual mechanism of the repeated bout effect, but it is possible that the phenomenon occurs through the interaction of various neural, connective tissue and cellular factors that are dependent on the particulars of the eccentric exercise bout and the specific muscle groups involved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Treatment and prevention of delayed onset muscle soreness.
TL;DR: The reader will note that selected treatments such as anti-inflammatory drugs and antioxidants appear to have a potential in the treatment of DOMS, while other conventional approaches, such as massage, ultrasound, and stretching appear less promising.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential effects of swimming versus weight-bearing activity on bone mineral status of eumenorrheic athletes.
Dennis R. Taaffe,Christine Snow-Harter,Declan A. J. Connolly,T. L. Robinson,Monte D. Brown,Robert Marcus +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the intensive weight‐bearing activity characteristic of gymnastics is a powerful osteogenic stimulus and that long‐term nonweightbearing training that incorporates forceful muscular contractions, as in swimming, confers no beneficial skeletal effects on bone mass of young women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of a tart cherry juice blend in preventing the symptoms of muscle damage
TL;DR: Empirical data show efficacy for this cherry juice in decreasing some of the symptoms of exercise induced muscle damage, and strength loss and pain were significantly less in the cherry juice trial versus placebo.
