Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Best recovery of pain using EVA, the perception recovery by Likert scale and muscle sensitivity to pressure by the pressure algometer, muscle strength through isokinetic performing a maximal voluntary contraction, agility, anaerobic power, jump and speed through the photocells blood lactate concentration using blood collected from the ear lobe and lower overhead to the autonomic nervous system by heart rate variability captured by a heart rate monitor and heart rate collected through the heart rate monitor and blood pressure through a stethoscope and sphygmomanometer in the group that will suffer the intervention with immersion in cold water from the finding statistically significant difference before and after the completion of technical and recovery period.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Difference in vagal reentry, anticipation of peak lactate and functional abilities between the intervention and control groups, respectively collected by a heart rate monitor, blood collection the earlobe and photocells equipment before and after the technical and recovery period.
