Abstract


Purpose: The purpose of study was to examine the comparison of an eccentric exercise effect on some
inflammatory responses between athletes and non-athletes male students. Twelve athlete (age 17.58±0.51 y,
weight 71.17±7.88 kg, height 1.79±0.1 m, BMI 22.32±2.6, FAT% 12.54±2.95) and twelve non-athletes (age
17.42±0.51 yrs, weight 60.08±7.32 kg, height1.74±0.05 m, BMI 19.73±2.36, FAT% 11.4±2.98). Male students
were participated in exercise program performed 50 maximal eccentric actions of the elbow flexor muscles of
the non-dominant arm. Blood samples were taken in 3 phase (before, 0.5 and 24 h after exercise) and were
analyzed for determination of damage and some inflammatory responses(C- reactive Protein (CRP), C3 and C4
Complement). Data were analyzed by SPSS (13) and Excel 2007 software. Research: results have shown that
strength eccentric training induces significant increase in serum CRP, C3 and C4 in athlete and non-athlete
male students. It appear that one strength eccentric training in athletes and non-athletes male students can be
induced damage and stressor factor of immune system in young students. Therefore this programs just use for
young people with caution.
