✦ Synopsis

Serum muscle enzyme activities of eight healthy men (22-32 years old) were measured before and 48 h after separate bouts of repetitive concentric, eccentric, and isometric contractions of the lower leg anterior compartments. Serum creatine kinase and glutamic oxaloacetic acid transaminase levels were both elevated 2 days after the eccentric exercise regimen, exclusively (36 and 17%, respectively). Lactic dehydrogenase levels were not affected by any of the protocols. Delayed muscle soreness was exclusively reported from the eccentrically exercised limb. We suggest that the high tensions developed during eccentric exercise cause mechanical damage, possibly including sarcolemmal degeneration. Subsequently, muscle enzymes are released to the blood. We conclude that postexercise serum levels of some muscle enzymes, at the time of maximal soreness, are qualitative markers of muscle damage.

Skeletal muscle fibre characteristics are key determinants of meat quality. High fibre diameters and shifting towards higher white fibre proportions lead to increasing __R__‐values (degree of desamination of adenosine) and lactate‐production, resulting in high incidences of pale, soft, exudative (PS

## Background Patients suffering from Intermittent Claudication (IC) experience repeated periods of muscle contraction with low blood flow, throughout the day and this may contribute to the hypothesised skeletal muscle abnormalities. However, no study has evaluated the consequences of intermittent
