Impact of Powdered Tart Cherry Supplementation on Performance Recovery Following Repeated Sprint Exercise
A single bout of repeated sprints was responsible for significant reductions in jump height, peak propulsive force, peak torque, and perceived readiness, while perceived soreness, myoglobin, and creatine kinase were significantly increased. Ten days of TC supplementation did not impact any change beyond what was observed in PLA for markers of recovery, readiness, soreness, exercise performance, and markers of muscle damage.
