Article Synopsis
- A study on 40 trained marathon runners explored the impact of different exercise volumes (higher-volume vs. lower-volume) on inflammatory, redox, and hormonal responses.
- At rest, lower-volume group showed higher levels of inflammatory markers and lower antioxidant activity compared to the higher-volume group.
- During exercise, both groups experienced similar reductions in TNF-α but different increases in CRP, indicating varying inflammatory responses, while antioxidants decreased in both groups but at different rates.
- Overall, the findings suggest that a higher training volume is linked to better inflammatory and redox profiles, possibly due to reduced inflammatory responses to acute exercise.
