IntroduĆ§Ć£o: A prĆ”tica de exercĆcio fĆsico regular Ć© recomendada a toda a populaĆ§Ć£o,
devido Ć s fortes evidĆŖncias dos seus benefĆcios para a saĆŗde. As recomendaƧƵes
universalmente aceites incluem o trabalho da massa muscular, mediante diferentes tipos
de contraĆ§Ć£o voluntĆ”ria dos mĆŗsculos. Nos Ćŗltimos anos, tem-se assistido ao
aparecimento de outras formas de estimulaĆ§Ć£o, nomeadamente atravĆ©s da aplicaĆ§Ć£o de
estĆmulos elĆ©tricos, electromioestimulaĆ§Ć£o (EMS), aplicada localmente para fins
terapĆŖuticos. A eletromioestimulaĆ§Ć£o de corpo inteiro, surgiu recentemente como
alternativa Ć atividade fĆsica convencional. Esta utiliza correntes elĆ©tricas de diferentes
intensidades para causar a contraĆ§Ć£o involuntĆ”ria dos mĆŗsculos esquelĆ©ticos, que pode
ser combinada com movimentos ativos e dinĆ¢micos, aumentando o nĆŗmero de fibras
recrutadas.
Objetivo: Esta monografia tem como objetivo rever o que se encontra publicado sobre
a influĆŖncia do treino de eletromioestimulaĆ§Ć£o de corpo inteiro, analisando as suas
vantagens, indicaƧƵes, contraindicaƧƵes e potenciais complicaƧƵes. Pretende-se ainda
comparar esta modalidade inovadora com outras metodologias de treino convencional
da forƧa, sem recurso a este tipo de equipamento.
Metodologia: A metodologia consistiu na revisĆ£o de artigos indexados na base de
dados PubMed, atĆ© dezembro de 2020, nas diretrizes da OrganizaĆ§Ć£o Mundial de SaĆŗde
e no livro da Academy College of Sports Medicine. Para a revisĆ£o efetuada na PubMed,
utilizaram-se os termos āwhole-body electromyostimulationā ou āwb-emsā ou āwhole-body
electro-myo-stimulationā. Foram selecionados apenas artigos realizados em humanos.
Na pesquisa inicial, foram encontrados 72 artigos. Foram excluĆdos 9 artigos da pesquisa
inicial, pois eram apenas referentes Ć āwhole-body vibrationā com
āelectromyostimulationā, perfazendo um total de 65 artigos analisados.
Resultados: Os resultados dos estudos analisados, revelam que a eletromioestimulaĆ§Ć£o
de corpo inteiro, permite a melhoria de alguns parĆ¢metros, tais como, aumento da forƧa,
da massa muscular e diminuiĆ§Ć£o da massa gorda. Melhorando, deste modo, a aptidĆ£o
fĆsica da maioria dos participantes. NĆ£o obstante, foram relatados vĆ”rios casos de
rabdomiĆ³lise clĆnica e de elevaĆ§Ć£o de marcadores laboratoriais compatĆveis com lesĆ£o
muscular, como creatina cinase, sem complicaƧƵes graves para saĆŗde dos participantes. ConclusƵes: A revisĆ£o da literatura cientĆfica, permitiu concluir que o treino de
eletromioestimulaĆ§Ć£o de corpo inteiro, apesar de requerer cuidados especĆficos, Ć©
considerado um mƩtodo seguro, eficiente, de baixo impacto articular- Este pode ser
considerado uma alternativa para pessoas desmotivadas e com menor capacidade para a
prĆ”tica de exercĆcio fĆsico. Pode ser associado ao treino convencional, para obtenĆ§Ć£o de
melhores resultados.
Introduction: The practice of regular physical exercise is recommended for the entire population due to the evidence of its health benefits. The universally accepted recommendations include muscle strengthening activities through different types of voluntary muscle contraction. However, in the last few years, other forms of stimulation have appeared, such as the application of electrical stimuli, called electromyostimulation (EMS). However, whole-body electromyostimulation has recently emerged as an alternative to conventional physical activity. It uses electric currents of different intensities, to cause the involuntary contraction of skeletal muscles, which can be combined with active and dynamic movements, increasing the number of recruited fibers. Objective: The aim of this review is to summarize what has been published about the influence of whole-body electromyostimulation, analyzing its advantages, indications, contraindications, and potential complications. It is also intended to compare this innovative approach with other methodologies of conventional strength training, without resorting to this type of equipment. Methodology: The methodology consisted of reviewing articles indexed in the PubMed database, until december 2020, in the guidelines of the World Health Organization and in the book of the Academy College of Sports Medicine. For the review performed at PubMed, the terms āwhole-body electromyostimulationā or āwb-emsā or āwhole-body electro-myo-stimulationā were used. Only human related articles were selected. In the initial search, 72 articles were found. Nine articles were excluded from the initial research, as they were only referring to āwhole-body vibrationā with āelectromyostimulationā, making a total of 65 articles analyzed. Results: The results of the analyzed studies reveal that the whole-body electromyostimulation allows the improvement of some parameters, such as increased strength, muscle mass and decreased fat mass. In this way, the improvement of physical fitness is observed in most of the participants. Nevertheless, several cases of clinical rhabdomyolysis and elevation of laboratory markers compatible with muscle damage, such as creatine kinase, have been reported, without serious complications for the health of the participants. Conclusions: The review of the scientific literature allowed to conclude that wholebody electromyostimulation, despite requiring specific care, is considered a safe and efficient method, with low joint impact, and can be considered as an alternative for the practice of physical exercise among unmotivated and less capable people. It can be associated with conventional training, to obtain better results.
