The Effects of High Intensity Interval Training and Flaxseed Oil Supplement on Pain Feeling in Male Rats

This study investigates the effect of high intensity interval training and flaxseed oil supplement on pain feeling in male rats. Forty adult Wistar rats were randomly divided into eight groups (five in each group) including control- saline, training- saline, extracts dose of 100 mg/kg, extracts dose of 200 mg/kg, extracts dose of 300 mg/kg, extracts dose of 100 mg/kg- training, extracts dose of 200 mg/kg-training and extracts dose of 300 mg/kg-training. Training groups was given high-intensity interval training (10 weeks, five sessions in week) on a rodent treadmill at 90 to 95 percent of VO2max and supplement groups also received flaxseed oil. Pain threshold assessment by the hot plate test with a temperature of 55 ± 0.5° C. Statistical analyses were performed using a two-way analysis of variance. Least significant difference posts hoc test was used in the event of a significant (P
