| Research Abstract |
We developed a new training method utilizing combined electrical stimulation andvoluntary muscle. The purpose of research was to investigate the effect of the new trainingmethod on muscle training for elderly people. The subjects performed knee flexion andextension for 19 min per session, twice a week 12 weeks. The knee muscle torquesignificantly increased 39% and muscle cross-sectional significantly increased 9%. Itis thought that we can contribute to health promotion and the prevention for care of the elderly people by using this new training method.
