N2 - Background: Recovery from exercise and competition
is important in sports medicine, particularly
when rest periods are short. The objective is to determine
the efficacy of cryo exposition (CRY) and
manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) to hasten short
term recovery of muscle performance after eccentric
contractions.
Methods: In a randomized controlled trial, 30
healthy sport students (21 males, 9 females; age:
25.7±2.8 years) performed 4×20 eccentric contractions
of knee extensors, followed by 30 min MLD,
CRY, or rest (RST) under controlled laboratory environment.
Maximal voluntary contractions (MVC),
electrically induced muscle fatigue (FI), and electrically
induced tetani (EIT) at low (T2: 20 Hz) and high
frequencies were tested.
Results: Force decline and recovery kinetics regarding
MVC, FI, and EIT did not differ significantly
(p<0.05) between groups. That is, 24 h after the intervention,
MVC (MLD: 80.9±5.5%; CRY: 81.1±8.5%;
RST: 83.5±7.3%), FI (MLD: 83.2±23.7%; CRY:
81.2±38.8%; RST: 93.2±22.9%), and EIT (T1: MLD:
53.0±29.5%; CRY: 39.0±32.9%; RST: 46.3±26.1%; T2:
MLD: 84.2±27.2%; CRY: 64.2±24.2%; RST:
66.6±22.3%) were similarly depressed irrespective
of applied treatments.
Conclusion: Neither CRY nor MLD hastened the recovery
of muscle performance, when applied for 30
min. Identification number of the Primary Registry
Network: DRKS00007608.
