- •
The reliability of corticospinal functional properties was examined using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) technique.
- •
The TMS-related measurements showed reliable intra- and inter-day values for dorsiflexor muscles.
- •
That study reported for the first time dorsiflexors VATMS intra- and inter-day reliability, and it was found to be excellent.
- •
Input-output curves were highly variable, making MEP amplitudes more reliable to evaluate corticospinal excitability.
- •
TMS can be used to better understand training effects on dorsiflexor muscles neural adaptations on a healthy young population.
