NOT YET RECRUITING

NCT06465407

NA

Sponsor: University of Central Florida

Summary

This study is focused on exploring the gap in the literature by comparing the effects of collagen protein versus placebo supplementation on the musculotendinous unit following muscle damaging protocol. Thus, the purpose of this study is to identify and compare the effect of collagen protein versus placebo supplementation on indirect markers of musculotendinous unit recovery following eccentric calf exercises.
