Note: If during the session there is tightness or discomfort in the inner leg, it is often 
because  an  upper  electrode  needs  to  move  outward  (see  set-up  section  and  FAQs). 

PAUSING:  

you can pause with the App or the orange button on the control unit (even if 

the  phone  gets  disconnected).   

 

Resume  /un-pause  using  the app.  It  will  Resume  at  a 

slightly lower intensity (for your comfort).

END OF THE SESSION

:  When the session is nearly over, some of the workout programs 

have  a  ‘warm  down’  period  for  about  1-5  minutes.  The  intensity  will  automatically 
decrease to zero over the last ten seconds.

Congratulations,

 

you’ve used BionicGym for the first time.    

SWITCH OFF THE CONTROL 

UNIT

  by  holding  the  orange  button  down  for  two  seconds.    The  light  will  turn  off  to 

confirm it is switched off.  It will switch off automatically after a while if you forget.

Workout Sessions

These may be updated from time-to-time. From June 2021 programs will be described 

in-App (click the info-icon beside the Workout).

The  Standard  programs  are  designed  to  exercise  you  at  low-to-moderate  levels 

of exercise.  The equivalent  of fast walking  or slow  jogging.  These are ideal  for people 

who are using BionicGym to feel fresh and burn calories.

They  each  have  different  characteristics.    Find  which  works  best  for 

you

,  e.g. 

which gives 

you

  a  better  overall  workout  (not  necessarily  the  highest  intensity). 

‘Faster’ or ‘higher’ levels do not necessarily give the best workout for 

you

.

For  intense  training  you  need  the  PRO  or  PRO-Intense  programs,  explanation  below. 

The HIIT programs mimic High Intensity Interval Training, explanation below.

Since we are all different and use BionicGym in different positions we have 

Zones

 – these  

maximize  the  comfort  and 

can  target  an

  area 

for extra training

.    Try  them  all  out 

and see which suits your body-type.

If you 

sweat

 a lot leave the plastic covers off until the

gel  has  ‘

dried  off

’  and  they  become  tacky  again

.

    This 

will help preserve them.  
Leave the electrodes attached to the wraps but replace the 

plastic  covers  over  the  electrodes.  If  you  lose  them,  

plastic or cling-film will do.
