Results

Palpation pain was significantly lower in the IEA group than the CEA group at 72 and 96 hours after exercise. The decrease in the elbow range of motion after exercise was significantly suppressed by electroacupuncture stimulation. The muscle injury markers (creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase) increased following exercise, but these changes were not significantly influenced by IEA stimulation. IEA suppressed exercise-induced oxidative stress at 72 hours after exercise.
