Post-exercise facilitation and post-exercise depression are phenomena described in motor evoked potentials (MEPs) elicited to transcranial magnetic stimulation. Brief, non-fatiguing muscle activation produces post-exercise facilitation, and prolonged fatiguing muscle activation produces post-exercise depression. We studied 12 normal subjects to determine whether post-exercise depression occurs before fatigue is reached. We recorded MEPs from the resting extensor carpi radialis muscle after increasing the duration of isometric wrist extension, at 50% of maximum voluntary contraction, until the muscle fatigued. Fatigue was defined as the inability to maintain that force. The mean exercise duration before the muscle fatigued was 130 s, and post-exercise depression occurred only beyond 90 s of exercise. We conclude that post-exercise depression is detectable only after prolonged muscle activation.
