Women sought for muscle recovery study

Stephen Foulis, a doctoral candidate in the Muscle Physiology Lab in the Kinesiology Department, is seeking participants for his dissertation study, which is focused on how muscles recover following an exercise bout and what effect that has on everyday function in young and older adults.

Qualified participants must be female, 25-40 or 65-85 years old, non-smokers who are not currently exercise training.

This study involves four or five visits, each of which will last approximately 1-2 hours. Participants will be compensated up to $50 for their time.
