Effects of essential amino acid supplementation on musculotendinous recovery following eccentric plantar flexor exercise: a randomized controlled trial.

A randomized controlled trial examined whether essential amino acid (EAA) supplementation accelerates musculotendinous recovery after eccentric plantar flexor exercise, which is commonly used to model exercise-induced muscle damage. The study assessed both muscle and tendon recovery outcomes, providing data relevant to rehabilitation and sports nutrition protocols. Findings from this trial may inform PT-guided recovery strategies for patients undergoing eccentric loading programs.
