After Quote by Archibald Hill
“In a large mass of muscle deprived of its circulation, the rate at which the recovery process can go on, after severe stimulation, depends on the rate at which oxygen can reach the fibres by diffusion.”
About This Quote
Source Scientific Paper: "The Physiology of Muscle Fatigue", 1930
Recovery speed after intense activity relies on how quickly oxygen diffuses to muscle fibers.
In simple terms: Oxygen diffusion limits muscle recovery.
Key Takeaway
Improve circulation for faster healing.
