The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) immediate intervention training on the countermovement jump (CMJ) height and to explore kinematic differences in the CMJ at each instant. A total of 15 male students who had never received electrical stimulation were randomly selected as the research participants. In the first test, the CMJ performance was completed with an all-out effort. The second experiment was best performed immediately to complete the CMJ operation after NMES for 30 min. Both experiments used a high-speed camera optical capture system to collect kinematic data. The results of this experiment revealed that after im-mediate NMES training, neuromuscular activation causes post-activation potentiation, which increases the height of the center of gravity of the CMJ and affects the angular velocity of the hip joint, the velocity and acceleration of the thigh and the shank and the velocity of the soles of the feet. The use of NMES interventional training based on the improvement of technical movements and physical exercises is recommended in the future.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) immediate intervention training on the countermovement jump (CMJ) height and to explore kinematic differences in the CMJ at each instant. A total of 15 male students who had never received electrical stimulation were randomly selected as the research participants. In the first test, the CMJ performance was completed with an all-out effort. The second experiment was best performed immediately to complete the CMJ operation after NMES for 30 min. Both experiments used a high-speed camera optical capture system to collect kinematic data. The results of this experiment revealed that after im-mediate NMES training, neuromuscular activation causes post-activation potentiation, which increases the height of the center of gravity of the CMJ and affects the angular velocity of the hip joint, the velocity and acceleration of the thigh and the shank and the velocity of the soles of the feet. The use of NMES interventional training based on the improvement of technical movements and physical exercises is recommended in the future.
