The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 8 weeks of PNF stretching exercises with HMB and casein supplementation on serum CPK and LDH enzymes in inactive students.
The present research method was the post-test with the control group. For this purpose, 40 volunteers with an average age of 21.7 + 7.5 years were randomly divided into two intervention and placebo groups.
Volunteers in the intervention group participated in 8 weeks of PNF stretching exercises. Simultaneously with the start of the PNF training program, HMB and casein supplements were also distributed. The placebo group also received two tablets in the form of empty capsules at the same time as HMB and casein supplements in the intervention group.
The examination of CPK changes showed that the participants of the intervention group compared to the placebo group, after stopping the exercises, the increase of CPK in the blood serum of the subjects reached its peak up to 14 hours of recovery.
The concentration of LDH in the intervention group has increased compared to the placebo group.
The present research method was a post-test with a control group. For this purpose, 40 volunteers with an average age of 21.7+5.5 years were randomly divided into two intervention and placebo groups.
Volunteers in the intervention group participated in 8 weeks of PNF stretching exercises. Simultaneously with the start of the PNF program, HMB and casein supplements were also distributed. The placebo group also received two pills in the form of empty capsules at the same time as taking HMB and casein supplements in the intervention group.
The examination of CPK changes showed that the participants of the intervention group compared to the placebo group, after stopping the exercises, the increase of CPK in the blood serum of the subjects reached its peak up to 14 hours of recovery.
The concentration of LDH in the intervention group has changed and increased compared to the placebo group.It seems that PNF exercises can increase CPK and LDH enzymes in inactive students. Inactive students can use PNF stretching exercises to increase the concentration of CPK and LDH enzymes.
