Résumé

{The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of 6 weeks training with different neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) currents (medium alternated and low-frequency pulsed current) on muscle architecture and neuromuscular performance of competitive athletes. A double-blind controlled and randomized experimental study was carried out with 33 athletes (22.2 +/- 2.6 yrs, 74.7 +/- 9.8kg, 176.8 +/- 6.0cm), divided into 3 groups: mid-frequency current (MF
