Effect of ketoprofen on muscle function and sEMG activity after eccentric exercise
Article Abstract:
This article examines the effects of ketoprofen, an anti-inflammatory agent, on isometric force recovery, myoelectric activity, and soreness following intense exercise. Findings indicate that there were no significant differences in surface electromyographic amplitudes between groups but ketoprofen treatments improved isometric force recovery and reduced muscle soreness.

Activity and immobilization after eccentric exercise I: recovery of muscle function
Article Abstract:
This article examines the role of physical activity on muscle function recovery in elbow flexors damaged by eccentric exercise. Results indicate that daily biceps curls facilitated improvements in muscle function and perceived soreness while arm immobilization led to similar muscle function improvements but lengthened recovery from soreness.

Activity and immobilization after eccentric exercise II: serum CK
Article Abstract:
This article examines the role of physical activity on serum creatine kinase concentrations in elbow flexors damaged by eccentric exercise. Results indicate that peak serum creatine levels were significantly lower in subjects who immobilized the damaged arm with a cast than in exercising and control subjects.
