The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a tart cherry supplement on recovery from exercise-induced muscle damage. Seventeen recreationally active women (mean age ± SD = 22.2 ± 3.3 years, height = 162.0 ± 6.0 cm, body mass = 65.1 ± 11.1 kg, BMI = 24.7 ± 3.5 kg·m) supplemented with 1000 mg of concentrated tart cherry or a placebo for eight consecutive days. An overload protocol of 8 sets of 10 repetitions of maximal effort concentric and eccentric muscle actions of the leg extensors at a velocity of 60°·s-1 was performed on the fourth day of supplementation. Testing sessions consisted of a muscle function test (MFT) to examine pre- and post-testing peak torque, peak power, total work, time-to-peak torque, mean power, muscle activation of the quadriceps, and muscle soreness at baseline and post-testing at 0 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h. A second trial of testing was repeated two weeks later using the opposite supplement to the one assigned for the first trial. No significant interaction for time × condition × velocity ( = 0.916) and no significant main effect for condition ( = 0.557) were demonstrated for peak torque. However, there were main effects for time and velocity for concentric quadriceps peak torque ( < 0.001). For muscle soreness, there was no two-way interaction for time x condition ( > 0.05) and no main effect for condition ( > 0.05), but there was a main effect for time ( < 0.001). In conclusion, a tart cherry supplement did not attenuate losses in isokinetic muscle peak torque, peak power, total work, time-to-peak torque, muscle soreness, or quadriceps muscle activation.
本研究的目的是调查酸樱桃补充剂对运动诱导的肌肉损伤恢复的影响。17名休闲活跃女性(平均年龄±标准差=22.2±3.3岁,身高=162.0±6.0厘米,体重=65.1±11.1千克,体重指数=24.7±3.5千克·米)连续八天补充1000毫克浓缩酸樱桃或安慰剂。在补充的第四天,以60°·秒-1的速度对腿部伸肌进行8组,每组10次最大努力的向心和离心肌肉动作的超负荷方案。测试环节包括肌肉功能测试(MFT),以检查测试前和测试后的峰值扭矩、峰值功率、总功、达到峰值扭矩的时间、平均功率、股四头肌的肌肉激活以及在基线时和测试后0小时、24小时、48小时和72小时的肌肉酸痛情况。两周后使用与第一次试验分配的补充剂相反的补充剂重复进行第二次测试试验。对于峰值扭矩,未显示时间×条件×速度的显著交互作用(=0.916),也未显示条件的显著主效应(=0.557)。然而,对于股四头肌向心峰值扭矩,时间和速度存在主效应(<0.001)。对于肌肉酸痛,时间×条件没有双向交互作用(>0.05),条件也没有主效应(>0.05),但时间存在主效应(<0.001)。总之,酸樱桃补充剂并未减轻等速肌肉峰值扭矩、峰值功率、总功、达到峰值扭矩的时间、肌肉酸痛或股四头肌肌肉激活的损失。
