4.4 Use of handstraps and footstraps

Handstraps and footstraps can be used to transfer the vibration to certain sections of the body as shown
in the illustration on the example of the ischiocrural muscles ("hamstrings"). The non-elastic straps serve
to convey the vibrations to the muscles in question. Depending on the exercise, the straps can be
fastened to the vibration plate in different places (20) and in different ways. The straps have been
provided with reference lines in different colours, allowing the user to adjust the length of one strap to the
length of the other.

4.5 Vibration training parameters

Vibration frequency:
Intensity (amplitude):

Active time:

Operating modes:

4.6 Active time
Active time is the time it takes to perform an exercise (vibration on).
4.7 Operating modes
Use the operating mode button (14) to select any of the following modes:

4.7.1 Operating mode "free"

Under this operating mode, you can freely determine all parameters shown on the display and freely
change or select any of the values (see Technical data).

4.7.2 Operating mode "vibe 1"

Under this operating mode, the vibration frequency will automatically increase – in intervals of 5 sec. and
steps of 5 Hz at a time – from 20 Hz up to 60 Hz and then return to 20 Hz in the same way.
4.7.3 Operating mode "vibe 2"
Under this operating mode, the vibration frequency will automatically increase – in intervals of 7.5 sec.
and steps of 5 Hz at a time – from 20 Hz up to 60 Hz and then return to 20 Hz in the same way.

4.8 More effort for better results

You may increase the required effort in a number of different ways such as:
Increasing the vibration frequency
Extending the active periods
Shortening the rest periods
Increasing the intensity from low to high
Increasing the number of reps
You can also increase the required effort by making the exercises more difficult to perform. You can
achieve this by:
- selecting more difficult / more complicated starting positions
- changing from static to dynamic exercises
- performing the dynamic exercises at a higher speed (faster rhythm)
- enlarging the stretched muscle section
