Summary
This study looks at whether shining red and near-infrared light on the legs can improve ankle movement and hamstring flexibility, which are linked to a lower risk of sports injuries. Forty healthy university students will try three things: no treatment, a 10-minute bike warm-up, and 10 minutes of red light therapy. Their mobility and flexibility will be measured before and after each session to see if the light helps.
