Changes in the Infrared Thermographic Response of the Triceps Suralis Muscle During Ankle Flexion–Extension Until Exhaustion in Healthy Adults

The results observed in this study show that infrared thermography is a valid tool for the measurement, analysis, and quantification of the tissue metabolic response of the muscular system, pre, during, and after exercise. Therefore, we believe that, for future studies, it would be interesting to find relationships between Tsk variations and other performance and metabolic variables. The focus on a single muscle and not directly measuring muscle activity are two limitations of this study.
