Do women enjoy better muscle recovery?

03.24.2023, by
An increasing number of women are outperforming men in very long ultra-trail races. Do they enjoy better endurance and muscle recovery? Should they be offered different training to reach their full potential? To find out, Caroline Nicol and her colleagues at the Institute of Movement Sciences (ISM) closely monitored male and female athletes during the Marseille-Cassis race, in the south of France.

The ISM is a CNRS / Aix-Marseille Université joint research unit.
