Experimental study on the recovery of MVC and muscle power after muscle fatigue with different recovery methods

摘要

This paper's purpose is to investigate the effect of passive recovery (PR), active recovery (AR), vibration recovery (VR) and cryotherapy recovery (CR) on muscle performance(Maximum Voluntary Contraction, muscle power) after muscle fatigue. 20 healthy male college students were enrolled in the study. MVC and MP of the biceps brachii of the non-handedness were measured. The differences and recovery effects of MVC and MP at different detection time points were tested by one-way repeated measures ANOVA. Results shows that 10 min VR and CR had about 15% muscle power recovery effect. In view of this, it can be inferred that both CR and VR can effectively help the recovery of muscle strength after muscle fatigue, but there is no difference between the 2 groups.
