Increasing the stimulation rate causes smoother force production. Lowering the voltage (intensity) decreases the total force produced. Manipulating both allows the muscle to produce smooth force at any desired level. For example, increasing the stimulus rate while decreasing the voltage allowed the muscle to produce smooth force at a level of 2 gms.
