The effects of heat stress on eccentric exercise induced muscle damage

OBJECTIVE Heat stress has been shown to increase tissue levels of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), which protects cells from further stresses. The purpose of this study was to determine if heat stress is effective to prevent or reduce the degree of muscle damage following eccentric exercise.
