Abstract in brief

Grounding after eccentric muscle contractions can reduce muscle damage, as shown by lower creatine kinase levels and changes in blood parameters compared to sham grounding.
In a study with 32 young men performing half-knee bends, those who were grounded experienced less increase in muscle damage markers and had different immune cell responses than those who were not grounded.
The findings suggest that grounding may help lessen muscle damage and improve recovery after intense exercise, but further research is needed to confirm these benefits.]
