Abstract
Purpose:The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of 4 and 8 wk of electromyostimulation (EMS) training on both muscular and neural adaptations of the knee extensor muscles.Methods:Twenty males were divided into the electrostimulated group (EG, N = 12) and the control group (CG,Keywords
