Recovery and Physiology
What is EIMD
Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage
The main exercise used in Hong et al. (2022) to induce EIMD.
Countermovement Jump (CMJ) with hands on waist
Did compression garments restore jump height to baseline within 1 hour?
No, jump height did not fully recover within 1 hour.
How many participants were in the compression garment study?
(6 men, 6 women)
A limitation of Hong et al. (2022) was their small ______ size.
Sample size
The soreness associated with EIMD that peaks 24–72 hours post-exercise.
Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness
The device Lin et al. (2025) used to perform eccentric knee extensions.
Biodex dynamometer
: True or False: Compression garments eliminated all symptoms of EIMD in Hong et al. (2022).
False
Number of participants in Lin et al. (2025).
40 men
Why might Lin et al. (2025) have limited generalizability across sexes?
They only included male participants
Which article showed improved mediolateral balance recovery?
Compression garment article
In Hong et al., participants performed CMJs at a set rhythm using what device?
Metronome
Both studies measured this outcome variable related to joint mobility.
Range of Motion (ROM)
Hong et al. excluded participants who had this condition in the prior 6 months.
Lower limb injuries
Both studies only tested short-term recovery effects. This limits conclusions about ______ outcomes.
Long-term recovery
Which recovery method would be more applicable for post-training muscle damage
Cryocompression.
Lin et al. (2025) tested multiple recovery interventions. Name all four
Cryocompression, Normothermic Water Compression, Cryotherapy (no compression), Control (supine rest)
Which study had stronger statistical power due to a larger sample size?
Cryocompression
Lin et al. excluded participants with this type of health history, including asthma, diabetes, and cold-related diseases.
Cardiovascular or chronic health conditions
Which recovery method would be more applicable for post-training muscle damage (e.g., eccentric strength session)?
Cryocompression.
