NCT06810271
After completing novel activity or exercise we may experience exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), resulting in a period of reduced muscle function and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). DOMS is characterized by muscle pain and tenderness that typically resolves within a week. While the precise cause of DOMS is unknown, there is growing evidence implicating damage to the connective tissue that surrounds our muscle fibers and is related to a small amount of inflammation. This inflammation is a normal part of our body's ability to recovery from injuries and may be visualized through the use of ultrasound technology. A variety of recovery techniques have been proposed that may help with the recovery of DOMS such as massage and electrical muscle stimulation, but these are not always accessible. Therefore, we are interested in investigating whether the number of daily steps can affect how you experience DOMS.

Recent evidence suggests that curcumin supplementation may reduce muscle inflammation, oxidative markers, and muscle damage. The most favourable dosage to elicit these ergogenic effects are yet to be established; both 750mg \& 1500mg has been shown to be effective. Curcumin supplementation has been ingested in numerous different ways however, no previous research to date has used curcumin in a hydrolysed (drinkable) format. The aim of this study is to investigate whether hydrolysed curcumin can reduce indices of muscle damage and improve recovery, whilst also examining a potential dose-response effect.

There is a paucity of studies investigating exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) in females and only one in response to dance-type exercise. This study aimed to firstly elucidate the physiological profile of EIMD following a dance-specific protocol, and second to compare the magnitude of damage to that experienced following a sport-specific protocol in physically active females.
