A new tool for muscular strength development by electromagnetic stimulation (MS) of muscular during voluntary contraction has been described. 18 healthy subjects (men) took part in the research. They were devided into two groups--control (CG) and experimental (EG). Subjects of CG and EG have equal muscular strength parameters. M. gastrocnemius of subjects in EG was exposed to MS (1.8 T, 5 Hz) during training exercises (plantar foot flection). The subjects of CG did not receive MS. The torque of plantar foot flection of EG subjects increased significantly (24%) during 10 days training. The torque of plantar foot flection of CG subjects did not change significantly. We hypothesize increasing of muscular strength of EG subjects was result of high-threshold motor units activation under MS.
