Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial
Cramp Training Induces a Long-Lasting Increase of the Cramp Threshold Frequency in Healthy Subjects.
A low cramp threshold frequency (CTF) is associated with an increased cramp susceptibility. Recent data indicate that the CTF can be substantially increased by a cramp training consisting of electrically induced muscle cramps (EIMCs). This study investigated if four cramp training sessions induce sustained effects on the CTF. ⋯ The applied cramp training induced a long-term CTF increase of 14 days.
