Effects of running distance and training on Ca(super 2+) content and damage in human muscle
Article Abstract:
The hypothesis that the Ca(super 2+) content of vastus lateralis muscle increases after 10- or 20-km run was tested and the relations between Ca(super 2+) accumulation and running distance, endurance training, and fiber type distribution were studied. It was found that significant accumulation of Ca2+ in muscle was found after running 20 kilometers.
