Summary
This study looks at how the body's markers of muscle damage change after a tough leg workout, and whether a second workout causes less damage. Forty-eight healthy, active men will have their pain, strength, and muscle thickness measured before and after exercise. The goal is to better understand the 'repeated bout effect' where muscles become more resistant to damage after an initial session.
