Summary

In this study the investigators utilized protein supplementation over an 8-day period following eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage in order to test the initial hypotheses : i) protein supplementation after exercise-induced muscle injury affects exercise-induced aseptic inflammation and muscle performance.

Conditions

  • Skeletal Muscle Damage
  • Exercise-induced Aseptic Inflammation
  • Skeletal Muscle Performance
  • Intracellular Signaling in Skeletal Muscle
  • Proteasome Activation

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Milk protein isolate

Milk protein isolate in a powder form consisted of 80% casein and 20% whey protein. 20g were diluted into 500 ml water. Placebo consisted of 365 ml water, 125 ml sugar-free cordial and 2g of low-calorie glucose/dextrose powder.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Placebo

500 mL drink that contained water (375 mL), sugar-free cordial (125 mL) and 2 g of low-calorie glucose/dextrose powder.
