Partial‐body cryotherapy (−135°C) and cold‐water immersion (10°C) after muscle damage in females
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 485-495, March 2020., 2020 This randomized controlled trial examined the effects of cold‐water immersion (CWI), partial‐body cryotherapy (PBC), or a passive control (CON) on physiological and recovery variables following exercise‐induced muscle damage (EIMD, 5 × 20 drop jumps) in females. Twenty‐eight females were allocated to PBC (30 seconds at −60°C, 2 minutes at −135°C), CWI (
