12. Fitness program.
IMPORTANT. Intensity of stimulation:
fitness programs (Firming up, Toning up, Strength,
Resistance/Endurance, Agonist/Antagonist) are divided in 3 phases: warm up phase, work
phase, recovery phase. During warm up phase (phase1) the intensity of stimulation has to be
setted so to produce a reasonable solicitation of the muscle, so to warm it up without getting
tired (18÷30mA). During work phases (the middle phases of each program), T-ONE alternates
contraction impulses with active recovery impulses. The intensities of the two impulses have to
be setted separately: contraction intensity (shown by a full bar on the display) should be setted
at 20÷30mA for out of train people, 30÷50mA for trained people, over 50mA for well trained
people.
We suggest to set recovery intensity value (between one contraction and another) around
15
÷
20% lower than contraction intensity value. During the last recovery phase, the intensity
value has to be setted to produce a good massage on the stimulated part, without produce
pain
(18÷30mA).
F01 • Firming up.
Indicated for firming up muscles in the arms and bust, or the legs ; working mainly on slow-
twitch fibres. Suitable for those who have never done any physical activity or have been
inactive for a long period of time. Method of use:
1.
identify the muscle to be treated. To obtain good results it is best to treat just a few
muscles at a time and complete the process described below;
2.
position the electrodes as shown in the photo;
3.
increase the intensity until the impulse can be felt (use a low intensity for the first
session to help you understand how the machine works);
4.
during the program and over the next few days the intensity should be increased
gradually so that muscle contractions are not painful;
5.
during machine contractions, contract the muscle voluntarily;
6.
a cycle of 15/20 applications must be completed before the first results can be seen;
one application for each muscle every two days with a day of rest in between.
It is possible to work on pairs of muscles, for example thighs and abdominal muscles, treating
one set one day and the other the next day. Working on too many muscles at the same time is
not recommended. A bit at a time but consistently!
