First seen Apr 03, 2026 · Last updated May 06, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study looks at how former athletes, current master's athletes, and nonathletes (ages 35-65) experience pain and how different types of moderate exercise—strength training versus aerobic exercise—affect their pain. Participants will complete three sessions: baseline tests, a strength exercise session, and an aerobic exercise session, with pain measured before and after. The goal is to understand how past athletic activity and exercise type influence pain tolerance and sensitivity.
