Description of tensiomyography (TMG) variables before the trial, and comparison before a water rescue of baseline levels of blood lactate and perceived exertion between recovery types.

TMG Variables *	Data before Trial
	M					Sd
TC	26.24					3.81
DM	7.61					2.71
Variables **	PR		ES		Test of Difference 1			Equivalence Test 2
	M	Sd	M	Sd	T	p-Value	Cohen’s d	t	p-Value
Lactate	2.58	1.32	2.64	0.997	−0.115	0.909	−0.0258	2.12	0.024
RPE overall	2.05	1.50	1.77	1.88	0.370	0.715	0.0808	−1.92	0.035
RPE legs	2.23	1.85	2.33	2.31	−0.145	0.886	−0.0325	2.09	0.025
RPE arms	1.91	1.51	2.10	2.12	−0.493	0.628	−0.1102	1.74	0.049
RPE ventilatory	1.18	1.14	1.29	1.82	−0.260	0.798	−0.0581	1.98	0.031

DM = maximal radial muscle-belly displacement, TC = contraction time between 10 and 90% Dm. RPE = rate of perceived exertion, df = degrees of freedom. ¹ Paired sample t-test. ² Paired sample two one sided t-test (TOST). * Single measure before trial [passive recovery (PR) or electro recovery (ES) protoco], ** measure in baseline state before PR or ES test.
