Alternation Of Stimulation Sessions / Voluntary Training; What Is M Technology - Compex Mi-SPORT Manuel D'utilisation

5. Alternation of stimulation
sessions / voluntary
training
he stimulation sessions can be done
T
outside or during voluntary training.
hen voluntary training and stimula-
W
tion are done during the same session,
it is generally recommended that the
voluntary training be done first follo-
wed by the stimulation. This means
that the voluntary training is not done
on muscle fibres which are already
tired. This is particularly important for
strength and explosive strength training.
owever, in resistance training, it can
H
be very useful to proceed in the reverse
order. Before the voluntary training,
by means of stimulation for resistance,
a "specific pre-fatigue session" is
carried out on the muscle fibres
without general and cardio-vascular
fatigue. In this way, the voluntary
effort on the "prepared" fibres will
push the glycolytic metabolism faster
and further.

V. WHAT IS TECHNOLOGY?
m
stands for "muscle intelligence"™ (All items referring to this technology are preceded by
m
the symbol ).
This technology takes into account the specificities of each of our muscles and thus offers
stimulation adapted to their characteristics.
It's simple, as the data is transmitted to the stimulator automatically!
It's personalised, as each of our muscles is unique!
Is the name of the muscular stimulator itself.
m—4
This is a little sensor that links the
stimulator to the electrodes. m—4
is the key component that enables
to measure certain physiological
characteristics of a muscle, to analyse
them and to adapt the stimulation
parameters accordingly.
It is this component that allows the
muscle to talk.
m—3
This function adapts the electrostimu-
lation session to the physiology of each
user. Just before starting the work
session m—3 probes the chosen
muscular group and automatically
adjusts the stimulator parameters to
the excitability of this area of the body.
It is a truly personalised measurement.
m—1
This is a work mode in which a volun-
tary muscular contraction is automati-
cally accompanied by a contraction
caused by electrostimulation. The elec-
trostimulation contraction is therefore
perfectly controlled, and the working
session thus becomes more comforta-
ble (from both the psychological and
muscular standpoints), more intensive
(the muscle works more and in greater
depth) and more complete (improve-
ment of coordination).
m—5
The optimal stimulation energy needs
to be identified and used throughout
the program (analgesic). On
TENS
the basis of the measurements taken
regularly during the session, the
device permanently and automatically
readjusts the stimulation energy to
avoid any onset of muscular contraction,
which is strongly counter-indicated
for programs of this type.
m—6
This function indicates the ideal energy
adjustment range for the low frequency
programs. Using m—6, you no
longer need to ask yourself whether
the energy you are using is too high
or too low: this function tells you, thus
optimising the efficiency of your
treatment or training.

programed for you ...
