Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on Rotator Cuff Fatigue.

The direct electric current will be applied through a pair of sponges humidified with saline solution (150 mMols of NaCl diluted in water Milli-Q) on the electrodes (35 cm2). The electrodes (anode and cathode) will be connected to a continuous electric stimulator (Model: Microestim Foco Research, Brand: NKL, Souza Cruz, Brusque - SC, Brazil), with one energy battery (9 V) and will be mounted in accordance with the International 10-20 EEG System. For anodal polarity stimulation over the left TC, the anodal electrode will be placed over the scalp on the T3 area located at 40% of the distance on the left from the Cz point. The cathode electrode will be placed over the contralateral supraorbital area (Fp2). Thereafter, a constant electric current of 2 mA will be applied for 20 min.
