Summary

During anaerobic exercise, the metabolic pathway of glycolysis is used in order to produces high-energy compounds adenosine triphosphate (ATP).The level of lactic acid in the blood is a marker to the increased protons concentration and acidosis.nevertheless, the increased level of protons in addition to the release of bradykinin causes pain during the exercise that limited the subject's performance. Therefore, it is assumed that the individual pain sensitivity might determine the subject's performance.

Aims: To investigate the role of the DNIC efficiency in prediction of anaerobic performance in humans (2) to study the role of peripheral pro-nociceptive processing in mediating pain during anaerobic exercise and its contribution to the subjects' performance (3) to assess the function of pain-related psychological factors in anaerobic performance.
