NCT ID NCT07333404
First seen Jan 12, 2026 · Last updated May 20, 2026 · Updated 20 times
Summary
This study looks at two recovery methods—pneumatic compression (squeezing the legs) and transcranial direct current stimulation (a mild electrical current to the head)—to see if they help male runners aged 40-55 recover after a 10-kilometer run. Each participant will try all combinations (tDCS, PC, both, or none) in random order, with a week between sessions. The goal is to measure how these methods affect muscle function, heart rate, and thinking speed, but this is not a treatment study—it's about understanding recovery.
