Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome: increase in temperature of the Achilles tendon after eccentric or isometric exercise after the execution of the intervention protocol and an intensification of the increase in temperature of the Achilles tendon when the exercise protocol is preceded by photobiomodulation.;Outcome found: the Achilles tendon temperature in isotonic exercise was higher than in isometric exercise in times related to during and post-exercise and the intervention preceded by FBM did not significantly influence the temperature. | — |
