Filter by:Cold water immersion (CWI) and percussive massage therapy (PMT) are commonly used re-covery techniques in team sports. In particular, despite its wide use, PMT has been scarcely investigated in the literature, especially regarding neuromuscular measures and in comparison with other techniques. This study aims to evaluate and compare the acute and short-term ef-fects (24 h) of CWI and PMT on muscle strength, contractile properties, and soreness after exercise. A randomized crossover study will be performed on sixteen male soccer players (22 y, 20-27) who participate in three experimental sessions involving high-intensity training and 12-min recovery including CWI (10 °C water), bilateral PMT on the anterior and posterior thigh, or passive resting. Outcomes will be assessed immediately after the exercise protocol, after the recovery intervention, and at 24 h. Isometric knee extension (IKE) and flexion (IKF), and tensiomyography (TMG) will be assessed.Muscle soreness and fatigue will be scored from 0 to 10.
Regular physical activity can help to prevent and control non-communicable disease. WHO recommends at least in adults to do moderate-vigorous physical activity includes muscle strengthening. But regardless the importance and recommendations of physical activity, not all of the world's population does it .Biceps Curling is a popular physical exercise which easy to do , it can strengthen the muscles in the upper body. However based on the International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) in individuals who just starting to do physical exercise may experience pain and can become a barrier to do physical activity, so an approach is needed to prevent this and acupuncture is one of them. Currently, a lot of acupuncture research has been carried out to reduce the condition pain and stiffness after weight training, but there are not many study using manual acupuncture twirling in this condition . That's why the aim of this study Is to see the efficacy of giving manual acupuncture with twirling stimulation for pain and stiffness post weight training. The study method will be a Single Blinded Crossover Randomized Controlled Trial which will compare the efficacy of Manual Acupuncture twirling with Manual Acupuncture Sham for post-exercise pain and stiffness . The outcomes consist of Visual Analog Scale, Pain Pressure Threshold, Range of motion of elbow flexor at 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours post weight training
Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) results from unaccustomed exercise and can lead to delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). Impairments associated with EIMD and DOMS can result in moderate-to-severe discomfort and hindered performance. Recently, a compound derived from the cannabis plant, cannabidiol (CBD), has been used as a recovery tool for EIMD and DOMS. Despite the rising popularity of CBD products, their effectiveness in mitigating EIMD and DOMS is unknown. Specifically, to the investigators' knowledge, no clinical trials have been completed to assess the effects of topical CBD cream application on soreness, recovery and performance. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of CBD cream on DOMS and performance after an intensive lower-body exercise protocol. Specifically, the study's aims were: Aim 1: To assess the effect of topical CBD cream administration on muscle soreness following fatiguing exercise. Hypothesis 1: CBD cream would decrease perceived muscle soreness when compared to a placebo or control (no cream) group. Aim 2: To assess the effect of topical CBD cream administration on muscular performance following fatiguing exercise. Hypothesis 2: Recovery of muscular power would be quicker when CBD cream is applied, compared to a placebo or control (no cream) group. Aim 3: To assess if topical CBD cream has a localized (if any) or systemic effect on muscle soreness. Hypothesis 3: Improvements in muscle soreness would only be observed in localized muscles around where the CBD cream was applied.
Running is the most popular physical activity worldwide. Although running provides many health benefits, it is often associated with injuries and symptoms such as delayed onset muscle soreness. There is still a paucity of interventions that can effectively minimise these symptoms in distance runners.
12 healthy men aged 18-30 will be included in the study. Participants will be selected from students who regularly train and do active sports at the Faculty of Sports Sciences. All participants will do nordic hamstring exercise. Participants will rest for 20 minutes after the Nordic hamstring exercise protocol in the first week. In the second week, manual lymph drainage covering the lower extremities will be applied for 20 minutes after exercise. In the third week, a Swedish massage covering the lower extremities will be applied after exercise. The exercise protocol is planned as 5 sets of 8 repetitions and 2 minutes of rest between each set. The evaluations of the participants will be repeated 3 times: just before the test, after the test and after the application.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of house cricket (Acheta domesticus) supplementation for strength recovery in recreationally active males. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: whether house cricket powder could improve strength recovery and whether house cricket powder could be an alternative to commonly used protein supplement. Participants will do exercise (100 drop jumps) to induce fatigue and then they will consume either isocaloric carbohydrate, whey protein isolate or defatted house cricket powder for 4 days. Their strength will be measured every 24 hours for 4 days in order to observe the recovery. Researcher will compare house cricket powder with isocaloric carbohydrate to see if the strength recovery is faster in house cricket powder group Researcher will compare house cricket powder with whey protein isolate to see if the strength recovery is comparable.
Load carriage is a common military activity and has been shown to induce acute exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) and impair muscle function. Protein supplementation can accelerate muscle recovery by attenuating EIMD and muscle function loss. This study investigated the impact of an additional daily bolus of protein prior to sleep throughout training on acute muscle recovery following a load carriage test in British Army recruits. Muscle function (maximal jump height), perceived muscle soreness and urinary markers of muscle damage were assessed before (PRE), immediately post (POST), 24-hours post (24h-POST) and 40-hours post (40h-POST) a load carriage test.
This study assesses the effect of molecular hydrogen inhalation in healthy males on muscle soreness, fatigue, oxidative stress, and inflammation following eccentric muscle contraction during downhill walking on the treadmill.
The goal of this intervention study is to determine if omega-3 fatty acid supplementation as compared to placebo improves performance in track and field athletes. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can performance be improved 2. Can strength be enhanced 3. Will positive body composition changes occur (lean vs fat mass) 4. Will feelings of muscle soreness be diminished Participants will take either omega-3 fatty acid supplements or placebo and continue with their sport specific training regimen. Researchers will compare the supplement group to placebo group to determine if there are any significant differences.
The aim of this project is to investigate the effects of riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, on preventing delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) in ultramarathon athletes through a randomized placebo-controlled study.
