The pre-test protocol was to maintain your usual lifestyle and nutrition and not exercise 48 hours before the test. The 19 subjects performed two tests one without WB-EMS and one with WB-EMS.<\/p>\n<p>The WB-EMS protocol was intermittently using a frequency of 85 Hz with a duty cycle of 4 seconds and 4 seconds of rest at the maximum tolerance limit of the subjects. A low session duration and low load training strategy was applied.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Results<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The energy expenditure was 17% higher during the year with the application of WB-EMS compared to the group without WB-EMS. The intensity measurement during exercise was higher with WB-EMS than without WB-EMS using the Borg scale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Although the study determined a significant effect of WB-EMS during the exercise of low intensity dynamic resistance in energy expenditure. The results were not as expected as a greater energy expenditure (three times greater) was expected. The reason for this may be due to the inability of indirect calorimetry to properly assess energy expenditure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bibliography<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wolfgang Kemmler., Simon Von Stengel., Johannes Schawarz.and Jerry L.
