Thigh anthropometric changes in response to six weeks of voluntary and electromyostimulation-superimposed voluntary training in young men
Introduction It is known that several weeks of unilateral voluntary contraction (VC) and electromyostimulation (EMS) can induce strength gain not only in the exercised limb, but also in the unexercised contralateral limb. The muscle strength gain can be due to either an improved neural control or increased muscle cross sectional area (CSA), or a combination of the two. In the literature various methods and techniques have been employed in assessment of muscle CSA, however, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique has been regarded as the golden standard.
