摘要

The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of additional and reduced activities after eccentric exercise on the recovery of muscle damage markers. Thirty-seven college-age males were randomly assigned to active recovery (AR; n=13), immobilization (IM, n=12) and control (CON; n=12) groups. Participants performed a bout of 50 maximal eccentric contractions of the elbow flexors (ECC) using a dumbbell that was set at 100% of the pre-exercise maximal isometric force (MIF) level. Immediately after ECC, the IM participants had their arm immobilized in a cast and secured in a sling at 90 for 4 consecutive days of this study. Immediately after ECC, at 1, 2, 3, and 4 days after ECC, the AR participants performed a daily exercise regimen of 50 biceps curls with a 5 lb dumbbell. The CON participants had no restriction of their arm activity. MIF active range of motion (ROM), upper arm circumference (CIR), and muscle soreness were measured for 2 consecutive days pre-ECC (baseline), immediately after ECC, and at 24 hour intervals for 7 consecutive days (at 4 to 10 days after ECC) after the 4-day treatment period. Plasma CK activity was assessed before and for 10 consecutive days after ECC for all groups. There were significant changes (p＜.05) in all criterion measures (i.e., MIF ROM, CIR, soreness, and CK) after ECC for all groups. The pattern of recovery in MIF was enhanced (p＜.05) by both AR and IM when compared to CON, whereas recovery from muscle soreness was not significantly improved by IM and AR (p＞.05). Moreover there was a significant increase in CK after ECC for all groups (p＜.05). Although there was not a significant difference (p＞.05) following ECC between AR and CON, the IM group was significantly lower (p＜.05) in CK during and after treatment periods following ECC than CON These data suggest that active recovery may had a positive effect on the recovery of MIF whereas immobilization may had a positive effect on the recovery of MIF CIR, and CK. Therefore, this finding may provide some useful information for the general public and athletes when muscle damage is obvious.
