Comparison of the Effect of Whole-Body Electromyostimulation Versus High Intensity Resistance Exercise Training on Body Composition and Strength in Middle Aged Males

ClinicalTrials.gov · TERMINATED, 2015

50 participants

Abstract

The main aim of the study is to determine the effects of Whole-Body Electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) on body composition and muscle strength compared with the "golden standard" High Intensity Resistance Exercise Training (HIT) in healthy sedentary middle aged males.

Conditions: Healthy, Sedentary, Untrained.

Primary outcome: Lean Body mass.

Enrollment: 50 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 50 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
