FITNESS8 • Fast strength upper limbs and trunks (non-medical program)
FITNESS9 • Fast strength lower limbs (non-medical program)
This program is designed to increase speed in fast athletes and develop it in
athletes lacking this quality.
The exercise assumes a fast pace and the contraction is short, as is the recovery.
It is usually best to complete a three-week basic strength cycle of increasing
intensity before using this program. Then continue with three weeks of fast
strength three times a week at high intensity, almost past endurance during the
contraction.
Session duration: 24 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: photo from 01 to 23 (21 excluded) of the Positions
manual.
Intensity: gradually increased session after session without overexerting the
muscles until reaching the maximum level of tolerance.
FITNESS10 • Explosive strength upper limbs and trunks (non-medical program)
FITNESS11 • Explosive strength lower limbs (non-medical program)
Explosive strength programs increase the explosive power and speed of the
muscle mass, with extremely short, strengthening contractions and very long
active recovery times to allow the muscle to regain strength. It is usually best to
complete a three-week basic strength cycle of increasing intensity, before using
this program. Then continue with three weeks of explosive strength twice a
week.
Session duration: 24 minutes.
Electrodes' positioning: photo from 01 to 23 (21 excluded) of the Positions
manual.
Intensity: during contraction, the intensity has to be the highest that can be
endured in order to obtain maximum muscle exertion whilst involving the
greatest number of fibres.
FITNESS12 • Deep capillarization (non-medical program)
This program significantly increases arterial flow in the treated area. Prolonged
use of this program develops the intramuscular capillary network of fast-twitch
fibers. The effect obtained is an increase in the capacity of fast-twitch fibers to
withstand strain over extended periods of time. For an athlete with good
resistance, the capillarization program is very useful for recovery after intense
aerobic work, before anaerobic work and when training is not possible (due to
bad weather or an injury).
Session duration: 30 minutes.
