No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The study aims to compare the effects of tDCS applied on the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) vs sham on the neuromuscular system. Two types of athletes will benefit from stimulation: jumper and cyclists. Short and long term effects are assesed by electromyographic records, experimental tasks and self-rated scales.
