Simultaneous application of tendon vibration and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) induces an involuntary sustained torque. We examined the effect of different NMES parameters (intensity, pattern of stimulation and pulse width) on the magnitude of the evoked involuntary torque. Plantar flexor torque was recorded during 33-s Achilles tendon vibration with simultaneous 20-Hz NMES bouts on triceps surae (n = 20; 13 women). Intensity was set to elicit 10, 20 or 30% of maximal voluntary contraction torque (MVC), pulse width was narrow (0.2ms) or wide (
