Our results show differential contribution of muscle mass in vascular and hemodynamic parameters evaluated immediately after EFlex and KExt. In addition, our study showed for the first time that the reflection coefficient, an index that evaluates the magnitude of the reflected waves from the periphery, was only affected by KExt.
