Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Lower mean of heart rate during high intensity exercise performed after LED application, monitored by cardiofrequencymeters, and identified by comparison of means, considering p lower than 0.05.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Lower salivary concentration of oxidative stress markers and inflammation after exercise with LED application, verified by biochemical tests, considering p lower than 0.05 between intra and inter group comparisons.;Lower blood pressure after exercise with LED application, verified by means of automatic blood pressure monitors, considering p lower than 0.05 between intra and inter group comparisons.;Better indexes of heart rate variability after exercise with LED application, verified by means of a Polar RS800 cardiofrequencymeter, considering p lower than 0.05 between intra and inter group comparisons.;Attenuation in the isometric knee extension force loss after exercise with the LED application, verified by means of a load cell, considering p lower than 0.05 between intra and inter group comparisons.—
