title: Corticospinal responses to motor training revealed by transcranial magnetic stimulation.
abstract: Transcranial magnetic stimulation was recently used to investigate the nature of adaptations that occur in the central nervous system in response to motor training. In this report, we provide a brief description of trancranial magnetic stimulation and discuss its potential as a tool for identifying corticospinal  response to exercise.
