Journal ArticleDOI

The prevention and treatment of exercise-induced muscle damage.

TL;DR: There is unequivocal evidence that prior bouts of eccentric exercise provide a protective effect against subsequent bouts of potentially damaging exercise, and further research is warranted to elucidate the most appropriate dose and frequency of interventions to attenuate EIMD and if these interventions attenuate the adaptation process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cold water immersion and recovery from strenuous exercise: a meta-analysis

TL;DR: Exercise will be subdivided into two categories: ‘eccentric exercise’ that refers to the stress caused from exercise incorporating high mechanical stress (eg, eccentric contractions) and ‘high-intensity exercise” that referring to stress causing from exercise with a high metabolic cost as well as some elements of eccentric muscle contractions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Skeletal Muscle Possesses an Epigenetic Memory of Hypertrophy

TL;DR: GRIK2, TRAF1, BICC1, STAG1 were epigenetically sensitive to acute exercise demonstrating hypomethylation after a single bout of resistance exercise that was maintained 22 weeks later with the largest increase in gene expression and muscle mass after reloading.
Journal ArticleDOI

The ACE gene and human performance: 12 years on.

TL;DR: The renin-angiotensin system exists not just as an endocrine regulator, but also within local tissue and cells, where it serves a variety of functions, and the ACE genotype is an important but single factor in the determinant of sporting phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

A modified TRIMP to quantify the in-season training load of team sport players

TL;DR: The results suggest that TRIMPMOD is a means of quantifying training load in team sports and can be used to prescribe training for the maintenance or improvement of aerobic fitness during the competitive season.
