Sponsor's own description
This study aims to identify the effects of the use of intermittent pneumatic compression on the recovery kinetics following an official soccer match, in comparision with a placebo condition. Participants will perform neuromuscular tests (ie, cmj, low-frequency fatigue), respond to perception scales (RPE, perceived fatigue, soreness, sleep), and biochemical tests (CK analysis). These assessments will be carried out before the match, 30 minutes post match, at the 24th and 48th hour.
