Abstract		The influence of body fat percentage (per cent F) and fat on the meat gluteal muscle (FG) on electrical stimulation of the muscle has been studied. The greater per cent F and FG, the higher stimulating amplitude was needed to elicit the muscle contraction and, in very obese persons, the parameters used were not strong enough even to elicit the contraction.
