Kayvan M et al, Effect of Electrostimulation Training on Muscle Strentgth and Sports Performance, Strength and Conditioning Journal 02/2011 • IInd century BC ! ! ! History Use of torpedo fishes to relieve pain • XVIIIth : Galvani’s experience on a frog First demonstration of NMES !!! • 1880-1980 : large technologic advances… Empirical approach based on experimentations Many different currents : shapes, frequencies… Discomfort and low efficiency • From the 80’s : Rational approach based on scientific understanding Safe, comfortable, efficient NMES current ! Basic effects of electricity on tissues Burn Electrical field Excitation (ActionPotential) Elementary Effects of Electrotherapy Burn Excitation Electric field Penetration of +/- ions into the tissues for medical purposes Nerve cells Muscular cells DENERVATED IONTOPHORESIS Afferent Efferent ANALGESIC NMES (pain management) (muscular work) Two types of muscle fibers Type I Fiber Red White S Type II Fiber S Force - - - FORCE + + + ENDURANCE + + + Aerobic Slow twitch fiber Endurance - - - Torque Anaerobic Fast twitch fiber Torque 30 100 ms 15 30 ms Characteristics of muscle twitches Strength Slow twitch fiber Fast twitch fiber 15 ms 30 ms 100 ms Time Tetanization process SUMMARY SLOW TWITCH FIBERS 33 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 80 90 100 Hertz FAST TWITCH FIBERS 66 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 Hertz Frequencies in practical use …? 40 to 70 Hz 75 to 100 Hz Strength 20 to 30 Hz Muscle volume 10 to 20 Hz Endurance Improve blood flow 2 to 9 Hz 100 Hz Spatial Recruitment and voluntary work-out • Hennemann principle (size principle) – Smallest > Largest – Slow twitch fibers > Fast twitch fibers • Fast twitch fibers are involved if contractions reach 75% of the maximal strength
