The aim was to analyze the effect of one session and three sessions of strength training (ST) on pain in women with fibromyalgia (FM).
Twenty-three women with FM performed three sessions of ST for a week. Each training session worked the main muscle groups and lasted 60 min. Three sets of 12 repetitions were performed with 1 min intervals in between. The load was increased based on the perception of subjective effort of each patient. Pain intensity was evaluated immediately after the first and third sessions using a Fischer digital algometer.
After the first ST session, pain reduction was observed. No significant differences were found in pain thresholds on the baseline versus the third session. The analysis of MBI demonstrated that the ST does not worsen patients' pain, indicating a 52.2% trivial effect and a 39.1% beneficial effect.
Our results suggest that there is no harmful effect on the pain of women with FM after an acute session of ST. We emphasize that despite the promising results, more studies on the subject are needed to help understand pain in patients with FM.
分析一次和三次力量训练（ST）对纤维肌痛（FM）女性疼痛的影响。
23 名患有 FM 的女性进行了为期一周的三次 ST。每次训练都针对主要肌肉群，持续 60 分钟。每组 12 次，每组之间间隔 1 分钟。根据每位患者的主观努力感知，增加负荷。使用 Fischer 数字压痛计在第一次和第三次训练后立即评估疼痛强度。
在第一次 ST 后，疼痛减轻。在基线与第三次训练之间，疼痛阈值没有显著差异。MBI 的分析表明，ST 不会加重患者的疼痛，表明微小效应为 52.2%，有益效应为 39.1%。
我们的结果表明，急性 ST 后 FM 女性的疼痛没有不良影响。我们强调，尽管结果有希望，但仍需要更多的研究来帮助理解 FM 患者的疼痛。
