Primary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in endurance performance. Timepoint: During test execution. Method of measurement: Using endurance test.;Amplitude of muscle electromyography. Timepoint: During endurance testing. Method of measurement: 16-channel wireless electromyography device (Noraxon model, Scottsdale, AZ85260).;Rating of Perceived Exertion. Timepoint: During the execution of the endurance test and the time to reach the dead end. Method of measurement: By use of 6 to 20 perceived exertion Borg scale.;Cognitive function. Timepoint: Before and after the application of stimulation and after the execution of the test. Method of measurement: by the use of Stroop Color-Word Test.;Choice reaction time. Timepoint: Before and after the application of stimulation and after the execution of the test. Method of measurement: By the use of Response Panel (63035A, Lafayette, Indiana) reaction time device.;Pleasure sensation. Timepoint: During the execution of the endurance test and the time to reach the dead end. Method of measurement: By the use of 11-item Feel Scale.;Pain sensation.
