Summary

This is a research study on human exercise that will investigate the immune system response post-exercise and how it relates to Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS), and possible causes for DOMS.

Blood draws (10mL) will be obtained at 5 timepoints: Baseline before intervention, day of exercise immediately following exercise, and post-exercise days 1, 2 and 4.

Point of care lactate levels obtained before and after exercise.

Subjective pain scores recorded daily starting immediately after after exercise.
