Effect of electrical stimuli on exercise induced hypolgesia

Summary

we are conducting research examining how electrical stimulation of leg muscles can change pain perception during cycling exercise. In a total of 4 visits, you will perform constant load exercise and tests to determine pain perception and muscle function. The tests will be brief (~ 1 hour for each visit) and are not dangerous.
