What the authors concluded
It was observed that (a) a significant torque increase (p < 0.05) post-LLLT compared to the values after placebo therapy at the beginning of resistance exercise, (b) both muscle torque (isokinetic) and median frequency (EMG) showed a faster decay of the signals collected after placebo and laser treatment when compared to control values, (c) no significant change in torque in the strength te
