The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if applying cold therapy can reduce swelling, inflammation, and pain after physical activity in adults who experience muscle soreness (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness, or DOMS). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can cold therapy reduce swelling and inflammation in muscles after exercise? * Does cold therapy reduce muscle pain and discomfort (DOMS)? Researchers will compare participants using the Axanova Cold Hot Pearls Maxi Pack to those not receiving any cold therapy to see if the cold application improves recovery outcomes. Participants will: * Perform physical activity designed to induce muscle soreness. * Use the Axanova Cold Hot Pearls Maxi Pack on the affected area as directed. * Report their level of muscle pain, stiffness, and swelling over the following 72 hours. The study aims to provide new insights into the effectiveness of cold therapy for muscle recovery, focusing on pain relief, reduced swelling, and improved recovery time.
