Before the training
8.1 Eating and drinking
Eat a high carbohydrate meal 2 – 3 hours before the training to
achieve the best possible training effect.
Drink at least 17 fl oz of liquid 30 – 45 minutes beforehand. Luke-
warm water is ideal. Avoid beverages containing caffeine and alco-
holic drinks due to the increased fluid excretion.
Drink mineral drinks or high-carbohydrate energy drinks immedi-
ately before the training. Sufficient liquid supply with carbohydrate
drinks must be guaranteed during as well as after the training to
prevent hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
8.2 Selecting undergarments and shoes
The miha bodytec undergarments available as equipment have
been specially developed for use with the device with respect to
material composition and strength. It is mandatory to wear the gen-
uine miha bodytec undergarments (
).
Always pay attention to the correct size. The undergarments must
fit closely everywhere, but must not cut into the skin or be too tight.
Pay attention that pants and shirt do not overlap under the elec-
trode areas on the abdomen and back. Doubled fabric layers
change pulse transfer, making the actual workout different from
what was planned.
Basically, the sizes of the undergarments correspond to the usual
clothing sizes. In addition, the hip width can be used as a more
detailed indication:
