研究概览
简要总结
The primary purpose of this study is to compare immediate changes in pain sensitivity (pressure pain threshold) during quiet rest, low fatigue exercise, and high fatigue exercise.
详细描述
Participants will attend three sessions. Participants will fill out questionnaires, undergo pain sensitivity testing, and be randomly assigned to complete a high and low fatigue exercise on either the second or third session. During the exercise, participants will complete three sets of a single leg knee extension exercise with weight equivalent to 50% of their 1 repetition maximum until they report either a high or low fatigue level. Immediately before and after each set, the research team will examine immediate changes in sensitivity to pressure (pressure pain threshold).

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Pressure Pain Threshold
时间窗: Change from baseline immediately after exercise
A digital pressure algometer will be applied to the quadriceps and upper trapezius for two trials each. Participants are instructed to say "stop" or "pain" so the stimulus can be terminated "when the sensation first transitions from pressure to pain" (pain threshold). Participants will rate the pain experienced during the threshold testing using a 101-point numeric pain rate scale (NPRS) anchored with 0= no pain to 100= the most intense pain sensation imaginable immediately following each testing time.
