Subjective and objective recovery characteristics after the exercise task. Results of (A) muscle swelling, (B) delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS), (C) countermovement jump (CMJ), and (D) maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) in function of time in the HYP and CON groups. Values for A, C, and D are normalised to baseline (% mean ± SD) with respect to their initial values. BL baseline, ^aP < 0.001 HYP compared with baseline, ^bP < 0.05 HYP compared with baseline, ^cP < 0.001 CON compared with baseline, ^dP < 0.05 CON compared with baseline
