Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Creatine kinase concentration. Timepoint: At the beginning of the study and prior of supplementation, on the seventh day and pre exercise, immediately after exercise and 24 h post exercise. Method of measurement: The craetine kinase concentration were measured with the autoanalaizer Pars Azmoon kites and.;Lactate dehydrogenase concentration. Timepoint: At the beginning of the study and prior of supplementation, on the seventh day and pre exercise, immediately after exercise and 24 h post exercise. Method of measurement: The lactate dehydrogenase concentration was measured with the autoanalaizer and Pars Azmoon kites.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Oxidative stress indices. Timepoint: prior of supplementation, pre exercise, immediately after exercise and 24 h post exercise. Method of measurement: The total antioxidant capacity of plasma was evaluated by applying the FRAP assay. Moreover, Plasma malondialdehyde concentrations spectrophotometrically were assayed by measurement of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances assay.
