“Background Delayed Galeterone onset muscle soreness (DOMS) is muscle pain and discomfort experienced approximately one to three days after exercise [1]. DOMS is thought to be a result of microscopic muscle fiber tears and is more common after eccentric exercise (the muscle must lengthen or remain the same length against a weight) rather than concentric exercise (the muscle can shorten against a weight load). While DOMS is not a disease

or disorder, it can be painful and is a concern for athletes because it can limit further exercise in the days following an initial training [2]. In most cases, DOMS will resolve spontaneously within 3 to 7 days. There is some evidence that ibuprofen, naproxen, and massage may accelerate the resolution of DOMS [2]. Treatment strategies have often integrated multiple therapeutic approaches such as cryotherapy, ultrasound, compression therapy, stretching and deep tissue massage [3–7]. In addition, several dietary supplements have been tested in the treatment of DOMS including protein, vitamin C, proteases (enzymes), phosphatidylserine, chondroitin sulfate, and fish oil, all with variable success [2, 8–14]. There is no clear consensus in the extant literature on a method or discipline that can effectively relieve pain following eccentric exercise. The test product in this study was BounceBack™ capsules; a proprietary dietary supplement combination containing proteolytic enzymes, curcumin, phytosterols from unsaponifiable avocado and soybean oils, vitamin C, and resveratrol.
