11. Sports programs.
IMPORTANT. Stimulation intensity: the sports programs (Resistance, Strength,
Agonist/Antagonist) are divided into warm up phases, work phases, and recovery phases.
During the warm up phase (phase 1), the stimulation intensity should be adjusted to produce a
slight tickling sensation in the treated muscle, this should be enough to warm up the muscle
without tiring it (18÷30 mA). During the work phases (the central phases of the programs),
contraction impulses are alternated with active recovery impulses. The user needs to select
the two intensities separately: for the contraction, the user should see the following on the
display with a bold bar; 20÷30 mA for relatively unfit people, 30÷50 mA for fit people, and more
than 50 mA for very fit people.
We recommend adjusting the intensity of the recovery phase between one contraction and
another by approximately 15
÷
20% less than the intensity of the contraction. During the
recovery phase (the last phase), the intensity should be adjusted to produce a good
massaging effect of the stimulated area without producing any pain (18÷30 mA).
S01 • Warming up (all muscle groups).
Program suitable for use before training sessions or competitions, very useful for sports
involving maximum effort right from the start. Program duration: 28 minutes. Position of
electrodes from photo 1 to photo 20. Recommended stimulation intensity: medium (20-
30mA); the muscle must work without strain.
Total duration: 28 minutes
Biceps (photo 02/15),Triceps (photo 03/16), hand extensors (photo 04), hand flexors (photo
05), Deltoid (photo 06).
Abdominals (photo 01/20), Pectoral/Breast (photo 07/17), Trapezius (photo 08), Large dorsal
(photo 09), Gluteus (photo 19)
Quadriceps/Thighs (photo 11/18), Biceps femoris (photo12), Calves (photo13), Anterior Tibial
(photo14).
3 min. Warm up with low frequency
5 min. Warm up with medium
frequency
20 sec. recovery
10 sec. contraction
S02 • Recovery.
Can be used for all sports, after competitions or the most demanding training sessions, in
particular after long and intense exertion. To be used immediately after exertion. Helps
drainage and winding down, improving muscle oxygenation and helping to discharge synthetic
substances produced during exertion. Program duration: 15 minutes. Stimulation intensity:
medium-low, increased during the last 5 minutes.
Position of electrodes: see photos 01 to 20 in the manual of positions in relation to the
area that you wish to stimulate.
S03 • Capillarization.
The capillarization program significantly increases arterial flow in the area treated. The
capillarization program is very useful for recovering after intense aerobic work (toning up
training) and improves local microcirculation. Program duration: 30 minutes. Recommended
stimulation intensity: medium (20-30mA). Position of electrodes: see photos 01 to 20 in the
manual of positions.
