Abstract

Background: Strenuous exercise may cause DNA, skeletal muscle as well as renal damage. Triathletes experience strenuous muscular activity both during competition and training. Studies have shown changes in renal function after competition which returns to normal after few days. However, these finding have only focused on a single event. There is no literature studying the cumulative effect of “training and competition” cycles over a season of triathlon competitions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cumulative effect of “training and competition” on renal function in elite male triathletes using urine protein and creatinine.
