Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Control group
Volunteers remained at rest before and after the fatigue protocol.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo group
Volunteers were subjected to laser application simulation for approximately four minutes with a second pen of the laser device, which was disconnected and did not effectively irradiate energy.

Experimental: Laser before
Volunteers received effective application of laser before fatigue protocol.
|
Low Level Laser Therapy was applied at four points to the dominant upper limb of the volunteers on the muscle belly of the biceps. Delineation was done using a measuring tape from the elbow joint line to the acromion marked at points corresponding to 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% of this distance, focusing the application on the muscle belly region, thereby excluding the tendinous region. An 808 nm equipment was used for applying laser therapy, with a power of 100 mW and total energy of 20 J. |
Experimental: Laser after
Volunteers received effective application of laser after fatigue protocol.
