Background: The study of Creatin Kinase (CK) and Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) in sports facilitates the collection of data about muscle status. In athletes, regardless of their physical activity, they may be subject to a set of programmed routines and this must be m to achieve the desired results. High percentages of these serum enzymes in apparently healthy individuals may be correlated with the level of physical exercise; if enzymes persist high while body be at rest, they may be a warning of the existence for some muscular disease. An increase of these enzymes contributes in sports medicine to quantify the effects of physical activity on the human body, favoring in the prevention and treatment of injuries that can trigger different diseases. General objective: To determine CK Total, CK-MB and LDH in athletes from 14 to 18 years belonging to the Sports Federation of Cañar.
