Following competition, athletes commonly use strategies to accelerate their recovery from muscle damage. The overall objective of this thesis was to study the effects of different recovery strategies on recovery kinetics following exercise-induced muscle damage. The aims of the studies were as follows: 1) to compare the effects of cold-water immersion (10 minutes at 10°C) and whole-body cryotherapy (3 minutes at -110°C), 2) to assess the effects of an upper-limb strength training session, performed the day after a lower-limb exercise,, 3) to study the effects of a placebo ingestion in comparison with a passive recovery. The experimental model used to induce muscle damage in these three studies consisted of 5 sets x 15 repetitions of maximal...
