These samples included 20people who were divided into group treatment and group control. Group treatment was given pedal exercise andstretching calf muscles, while Group control without treatment. Hypothesis test by paired sample t-test in group treatmentis p=0.000 with a mean difference 30.00±16.99, that mean is it can increase threshold of calf muscle pain, while incontrol group is p=0.758 with a mean difference 1.00±9.94, that mean is it can’t increase threshold of calf muscle pain.At different test between treatment group and control group using independent sample t-test was obtained p=0.000(p<0.05).
