TRAINING CONDITIONS ANTELOPE.EMS
What I have to take into account during training
• Train a maximum of two to three times per week.
• Respect the breaks, only train after at least 48 hours of rest.
• Train no longer than 20 to 30 minutes per session, depending
on intensity of the programme you have chosen.
• Listen to your body and know your limits.
• Drink enough water.
• If you feel unwell or experience any discomfort during train-
ing, stop training immediately and contact your doctor or the
emergency services. If dizziness, heart problems or severe
pain occur after the training, a doctor should be consulted.
POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS:
Training despite the presence of a contraindication and/or
non-compliance with the training conditions can cause signifi
-
cant health problems, which in rare cases can lead to death. This
can result, among other things, from severe overtraining and
non-compliance with the necessary rest periods. Possible side
effects include partial loss of strength, delayed onset muscle sore
-
ness, and a significant increase of muscle protein such as creatine
kinase in blood levels. In some cases, creatine kinase in overdoses
can damage the kidneys or other organs and lead to their failure.
