Filter by: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.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in force and power production, soreness, inflammation, and oxidative stress after repeated sprinting activity and powdered tart cherry ingestion in trained males and females.
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.
This post-market clinical follow-up, open-label, multicenter, randomized, parallel group clinical investigation is designed to investigate the effectiveness, safety, and tolerability of immediate and delayed ThermaCare HeatWraps (medical device) applications against no treatment.
The objective of this study was to compare the clinical effectiveness of self-management (SM) together with mandibular home exercises (EX) in the treatment of myalgia of the masticatory muscles. A controlled clinical trial was carried out with a total of 48 subjects diagnosed with myalgia according to the diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders (DC/TMD), who were randomized into two groups: treated with SM (SM group) and treated with SM and mandibular home exercises (SM-EX group). The follow-ups were carried out at 2, 6 and 10 weeks, where the following were evaluated: pain in the masticatory muscles, range of mandibular movement and mandibular functional limitation.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether there is a difference in areas such as occupational musculoskeletal injuries and strategies developed by physiotherapists working in different fields, burnout and occupational satisfaction.
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.
ESP is the deepest back muscle originating from the transverse processes of the vertebrae. Blocks applied to this region are effective for a longer time and in the broader area than those applied to superficial muscles. Recently, pulsed radiofrequency treatments have also been performed in myofascial pain, and successful results have been obtained. The investigators aim to investigate whether there is a difference between these two applications in terms of treatment efficacy.
