Inter-individual differences in muscle damage following a single bout of high-intense whole-body electromyostimulation

High-intensity WB-EMS has the potential to induce severe muscle damage, as indicated by elevated levels of CK and Mb. We identified two distinct groups of individuals, SR and FR, indicating variability in response to WB-EMS. Furthermore, we suggest that individual responses to WB-EMS can be predicted based on post-WB-EMS lactate concentration.
