TRAINING RECOVERY
The Compex Active Recovery cool-down program produces muscle twitches at a very low frequency� Those
twitches act like a muscle relaxation and induce an increase in blood flow� They are responsible for a faster
reduction of the lactic acid blood level (much better than mere rest) and accelerate the exchanges between
muscle fibers and blood� Consequently, the stimulated muscles recuperate better from fatigue and the athlete
has a feeling of relaxation and muscle lightness� This type of cool- down program is recommended after hard
training sessions and competitions� It is particularly useful after sports requiring long duration efforts, combining
endurance and resistance (cycling, marathon, triathlon, mountain-bike, etc�)� The same is applicable to sports
that require shorter efforts (basketball, soccer, football)�
PRE-WARMUP
The Compex Pre-Warmup program helps muscles to get ready and should be used before training sessions and
before competitions� The twitches increases blood flow, warm the muscle tissue, and speed all the reactions
necessary for the most efficient muscular contraction�
COMPETITION RECOVERY
The Compex Recover Plus program is a sub-set of the Active Recovery program that produces the lower
frequencies for inducing gentle muscle contractions and to increase in blood flow and generate endorphins-the
bodies natural analgesic� This program should be used after training sessions and competitions�
MUSCLE RELAXATION
The Compex Muscle Relaxation program produces gentle muscle twitches to facilitate recovery from muscle
fatigue and to help recover muscle strength after training sessions and competitions�
