Hi Nic, I'm doing my dissertation on DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness)... the pain you feel a few days after doing exercise... so much of our lit search is bound to be linked. I'll get the ref's of the articles which may be of more relevance for you... and it would be superb if you could suggest any you've come across, thanks
My dissertation's looking at whether a warm-down; a passive, or more of an active one, is actually better in reducing DOMS... AND I intend to use the BIODEX machine, working the biceps eccentrically to induce it. THEN ask the subjects to fill out a questionnaire to explore the severity of the DOMS.
What do you think? Any tips??
If I could be of any help to you, I'd love to help
