Effects of Endurance Running Training Associated With Photobiomodulation on 5-Km Performance and Muscle Soreness: A Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial

This study aimed to investigate the influence of endurance running training associated with PBM on endurance performance variables and muscle soreness in untrained men. Thirty untrained men were distributed randomly into a placebo (PLA) group and photobiomodulation group (PBMG) and they performed 8...

description This study aimed to investigate the influence of endurance running training associated with PBM on endurance performance variables and muscle soreness in untrained men. Thirty untrained men were distributed randomly into a placebo (PLA) group and photobiomodulation group (PBMG) and they performed 8 weeks of running training. The PBMG had the PBM performed before all training sessions. The PBM was applied using LED equipment with 56 diodes of red light (660 nm) and 48 diodes of infrared light (850 nm). The application was performed in 5 points per leg, with a dose of 60 J at each point and a total energy delivered per leg of 300 J. Peak running velocity, time limit tests and 5-km performance were assessed pre and post-training; muscle soreness was evaluated before all training sessions. The Vpeak increased and 5-km running time (t5–km) decreased (P < 0.001) in both groups. In addition, the magnitude based-inference analysis showed a possibly positive effect on Vpeak and t5–km and for PBMG compared to PLA group. Furthermore, there was a moderate ES of 0.82 on attenuation in muscle soreness in the third week of endurance running training. Therefore, although the magnitude-based inference analysis demonstrated a possibly positive effect on Vpeak and t5–km and for PBMG compared to PLA group and a moderate ES on attenuation in muscle soreness in the last weeks of endurance running training, no significant difference were found between PBMG and PLA interventions.
