The Effect of Elevated Muscle Pain on Neuromuscular Fatigue during Exercise

Abstract: Purpose: Muscle pain can impair exercise performance but the mechanisms for this are unknown. This study examined the effects of muscle pain on neuromuscular fatigue during an endurance task. Methods: On separate visits, twelve participants completed an isometric time to task failure (TTF) of the right knee extensors at ~20% of maximum force following an intramuscular injection of isotonic saline (CTRL) or hypertonic saline (HYP) into the vastus lateralis. Measures of neuromuscular fatigue were taken before, d… Show more

“…We feel that part of the small difference in discomfort was related to the rather long 5–10‐day duration between experimental trials whereby individuals may have had a difficult time recollecting the feeling of the prior trial when providing their discomfort rating. Nonetheless, our difference in discomfort ratings was similar to what has been reported previously (pain ratings of 57 vs. 38 in experimental and control) and shown to have an effect when applied to the specific muscle being tested (Norbury et al, 2021). Another limitation exists in that we did not remeasure the arterial occlusion pressure on the day of the experimental visit to keep the participants blinded to their trial visit.…”
