Measure
Sham Electrical Stimulation
The intervention will consist of sham electrical stimulation using an All Stim stimulator of each quadriceps leg muscle for 30 minutes per day for a total of 7 days. Sham electrical stimulation using an All Stim stimulator: With this intervention the All Stim unit is turned off and no electrical stimulation is provided.
Active Electrical Stimulation
The intervention will consist of active electrical stimulation using an All Stim stimulator of each quadriceps leg muscle for 30 minutes per day for a total of 7 days. Active electrical stimulation using an All Stim stimulator: This is an FDA approved stimulator that is used for strengthening the quadriceps muscle.
