Summary

The present study will assess the effect of the type and timing of protein ingestion 6 days prior to, and 7 days following eccentric exercise on the time course of 1) the recovery of muscle function, 2) the recovery of perceived muscle soreness, 3) muscle metabolism.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT	Post exercise protein-polyphenol supplement	Participants will ingest a post exercise protein-polyphenol supplement. This will begin 6 days before eccentric exercise and will end 6 days after eccentric exercise.
DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT	Post exercise placebo supplement	Participants will ingest an isocaloric placebo supplement after exercise. This will begin 6 days before eccentric exercise and will end 6 days after eccentric exercise.
DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT	Pre bed protein-polyphenol supplement	Participants will ingest a protein-polyphenol supplement before bed. This will begin 6 days before eccentric exercise and will end 6 days after eccentric exercise.
DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT	Pre bed placebo supplement	Participants will ingest an isocaloric placebo supplement before bed. This will begin 6 days before eccentric exercise and will end 6 days after eccentric exercise.
