Abstract
Background and Objectives: In exhaustive physical activities, a person is affected by many physical physiological pressures, which causes soreness and muscle injuries. This study was conducted in order to investigate the effect of eight weeks of highly intensive interval training along with ginger supplementation on IL6 and PGH, which are indicators of soreness and muscle injuries, in young female taekwondo athletes. Methods: in This semi-experimental study, 24 young female taekwondo athletes with an average age of 19.75±2.03 years, height 1.602±0.123 cm, weight 53.99±7.49 kg, were selected voluntarily. Before starting the study, physical and anthropometric measurements were taken, after which the subjects were randomly classified into two groups: ginger + exercise and exercise. The exercise + ginger group received four 500 mg capsules daily in the morning and evening for eight weeks and did three days of highly intensive interval training (HIIT). Blood samples were collected from Antecubital vein in two stages before and after the intervention, and serum levels of COX2, PGE2, and IL-6 were measured using the Elisa method Findings: Due to the significance of the data in the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test (P>0.05), Yeoman-Whitty and Wilcoxon tests were used. The results showed that intense interval training along with ginger supplementation had an effect on the reduction of Il6, PGE enzymes and a significant difference was observed between the two experimental and control groups (P<0.05). Conclusion: Taking ginger supplements during training can be effective in reducing muscle injuries and soreness caused by HIIT exercises.
