from Oxygen February 2013 issue:
60 percent of muscle strength regained by study participants with the lowest stress levels, one hour following a leg workout using heavy weights. By contrast, those with the highest stress levels only regained 38 percent of their strength in the same amount of time. Researchers speculate this is most likely because stress hormones impair the body's response to post-exercise inflammation.
