Effects of Compression Tights on Recovery Parameters after Exercise Induced Muscle Damage: A Randomized Controlled Crossover Study

Table 2

Intercept and fixed effect (bold text) results for maximum hip/leg extension strength (in [N]). Lower part of the table: overall reduction of maximum hip/leg extension strength (in [N]) during the postexercise period of 96 h. MV: mean value, SE: standard error; DF: degrees of freedom; 95-CI: 95% confidence interval.
