Effects of Cooling on Ankle Muscle Strength, Electromyography, and Gait Ground Reaction Forces

The effects of cooling on neuromuscular function and performance during gait are not fully examined. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of local cooling for 20 min in cold water at 10°C in a climate chamber also at 10°C on maximal isometric force and electromyographic (EMG) act...
