Figure 1. Research design (between-subjects with repeated measures). The bullet points within each box represent the sequence of procedures for that visit. Abbreviations: MIT: maximal isometric torque, NRS: numerical rating scale, Post-EE: post-eccentric exercise, PM: percussive massage, RM: repetition maximum, ROM: range of motion. *Electromyographic and mechanomyographic amplitudes were collected during the MIT.
