11. EMS Programs

Stimulation intensity during the contraction: the muscle must contract well
without causing pain. It is recommended to voluntarily contract the muscle
during contractions induced by the electronic stimulator to reduce the sense of
discomfort and improve the proprioceptive response: In this way, after
electrostimulation, the muscle will be capable of contracting all of the muscle
fibres stimulated by electrostimulation and the parameters of strength and
resistance will improve.
Contraction should increase as you pass through the following programs:

Resistance

Basic strength

Fast strength
P01 • Speed
This program is designed to increase speed in fast athletes and develop it in athletes
lacking the quality. Program duration: 30 minutes, in 3 phases as reported on EMS
chart.
The exercise assumes a fast pace and the contraction is short, as is the recovery. It is
usually best to complete a four-week basic strength cycle of increasing intensity before
using this program. Then continue with four weeks of fast strength three times a week
at high intensity, almost past endurance during the contraction.

P02 • Basic strength
The Basic strength program is used in sport to develop basic strength, which for
definition is the maximum tension that a muscle can exert against constant resistance.
The contractions alternate with periods of active recovery during the work phase,
allowing the muscle to be trained without subjecting it to stress and improving
oxygenation of the same muscle. Program duration: 30 minutes, in 3 phases as
reported on EMS chart.
The following basic procedure will enable you to obtain the first results: two sessions
per week (for each muscle region) for the first 2 weeks at medium/low intensity, three
sessions per week for the next three weeks at high intensity.
