Active range of motion
DOMS
Participants’ exercised arm was placed on a table at a 90-degree angle. Participants were instructed to say “now” when they began to feel a painful pulling sensation in the bicep while extending their own arm outwards. The resulting angle was recorded with the goniometer, using the acromion process, midline of the ulna, and lateral humeral epichondyle as landmarks. This assessment was completed pre-DOMS induction and at follow-up visits. Active range of motion has been used in previous studies to assess the effects of treatments on DOMS [
