Impulse Form

       Setting these parameters can increase vertical jumps by up to + 25% (squat jump + 21.4%, backward jump + 19.2%, and drop jump + 12%), and sprint time for trained and elite athletes can be reduced by up to – 4.8%.
    Regarding fitness level, analysis shows that although well-trained elite athletes already have a high fitness level, their strength level can be significantly improved to the extent that untrained subjects can achieve.
     EMS provides a promising alternative to traditional strength training to enhance the aforementioned strength parameters and athletic capabilities. Because time management has obvious advantages, especially when using whole-body EMS, we can expect this method to be used more and more in high-performance sports.

48% of the impulses were delivered with a square or rectangular form.

27% used an alternating sinus impulse form.

15% of the studies, stimulation was performed with symmetrical, asymmetrical. 

10% did not comment on the impulse form.

Impulse Width

On average, an impulse width of 261 ±132 microseconds was used.

48% of the impulses were delivered with a square or rectangular form.

Impulse Frequency​

​

The regulated frequency varied between 25 and 2,500 Hz. Frequencies over 1,000 Hz were not included in the mean value;
