Summary

In this study investigators will examine the effect of dose related to exercise therapy for pain in healthy adult humans. An acute pain model will be employed to study the effect of exercise dose on pain. Acute pain models are currently used to study pain (both acute and chronic) in human samples as there is currently no chronic pain model.
