Frequency-Dependent Reaction of the Triceps Surae Muscle of the Mouse During Electromyostimulation

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
The difference in the efficacy of altered stimulation parameters in whole-body-electromyostimulation training (WB-EMS) has hardly been examined. Higher impulse frequencies (>50 Hz) might be most adequate for strength gains because of the force ...
