There were no between condition differences for changes in creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), or delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
Trainers may not need to adjust recovery protocols based on CK, LDH, or DOMS after these exercises.

- Athletes aiming to reduce fat mass and preserve FFM should consume protein intakes in the range of ∼1.8-2.7 g kg(-1) d(-1).Strong
- A minimum daily protein intake of ≥1.6 g/kg is necessary to observe significant improvements in muscle mass from whey protein supplementation.Strong
- Most athletes ideally need 1.2 to 2.0 grams/kg of body weight/day of protein, preferably split across 3-4 meals.Strong
