Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increases superior to 20% of muscle strenght values, measured by surface electromyogram (EMG), and heart rate variability after protocol of cryotherapy recovery. The EMG measurements will be realized immediately before and after muscle fatigue induction, and recovery protocols. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Muscle fatigue levels superior to 15% after protocol of microwave diathermy, when compared to cryotherapy recovery. Determination of muscle fatigue will be realized by surface electromyogram, which will be realized immediately before and after exhaustion and recovery protocols. | — |
