This study was designed to compare the effects of eccentric and concentric exercises on blood polymorphonuclear neutrophil count (nPMN) and plasma levels of

grade (RD). Blood samples were collected 10 mm before and immediately after exercise. A postexercise sample was drawn after 20 mm recovery. Both exercise bouts were accompanied

by a similar and significant (p
