The research indicates that incorporating electrical muscle stimulation (NMES) with resistance training produces greater muscle mass and strength improvements than weightlifting alone.
The authors noted that neuromuscular electrical stimulation devices are accessible and easy to use, proposing a practical way for individuals to enhance their workout results.
NMES mimics natural muscle activation by sending electrical currents to the nerves, leading to muscle contractions without brain input, essentially causing involuntary muscle activity.
A comparative analysis of 13 studies revealed an additive effect of combining NMES with resistance training, potentially offering significant benefits for muscle growth and strength.
