Working Out
Once you enter the workout mode your display show you the times for the
various stages of your workout.
(fig. 16) This will be different based on the
program you choose. See table below.
There is no need to press the select
button as the program will start automatically.
Electrical Current Intensity
The intensity of the electrical current determines the number of
working fibers in the stimulated muscle. With a lower current intensity,
there are fewer working fibers. With a higher current intensity the number of
working fibers is increased. To reach a significant percentage of working
fibers, you should reach a minimum intensity of 30 mAmp. This threshold
intensity can be reached within the first two sessions by progressively
increasing the intensity during muscle contractions. Once this threshold
is reached, continue to progressively increase the current intensity to make the
stimulation more effective.

Setting the Intensity
When the program starts, the Intensity
Levels will be at "0" and blinking.
(fig. 17)
Using the "+" end of the toggles, increase
the intensity to your maximum comfort
level. The left toggle controls the left side
of your body and the right toggle controls
the right side of your body.
Periodically during your routine the built-
in "auto-coach" will urge you to increase
the intensity of your workout by emiting a
beeping sound.
