Interleaved 31P NMR with transcutaneous nerve stimulation (TNS): a method of monitoring compliance-independent skeletal muscle metabolic response to exercise.
31P NMR spectroscopy was used to monitor the metabolic response of the tibialis anterior muscle group to transcutaneous nerve stimulation of the peroneal nerve at a rate of 4 Hz for 5 min in human volunteers (n = 8). It is demonstrated that this technique can be used as a method of investigating effort-free and compensation-independent skeletal muscle exercise.
