Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.Identification of distinct gene expression profiles associated with pre-exercise baseline, acute post-exercise stress, and recovery phases. 2.Discovery of key molecular pathways related to inflammation, oxidative stress, immune activation, and metabolic adaptation modulated by endurance activity. 3.Characterization of molecular signatures that differentiate beneficial physiological adaptation from excessive stress or fatigue. 4.Identification of potential transcriptomic biomarkers for monitoring recovery, and risk of overtraining or injury. 5.Generation of a systems-level framework to support personalized training strategies and performance optimization in endurance athletes.Timepoint: Baseline
