The trainer applies the information they learned in the basic miha
bodytec training session so that everyone training with the device
has a safe EMS workout. In particular, the trainer is responsible for
the following:
n
Ensuring that updates are integrated promptly following release.
n
Ensuring that athletes/patients are healthy enough for EMS
training in advance of each training session.
n
Ensuring that defective parts are replaced when problems
become known.
n
Having the equipment properly cleaned after the EMS training
session or cleaning it.
The trainer must be qualified in accordance with the local specifica-
tions to administer first aid and has a basic knowledge in anatomy,
physiology, training theory and training planning.
During a workout, the trainer must focus exclusively on the needs
of the athlete(s)/patient(s). They do not actively participate in the
workout and are not hooked up to the device but inform and mon-
itor the athletes/patients. A maximum of 2 athletes/patients per 1
trainer is allowed. Before, during, and after the workout, the trainer
enquires about the physical condition of the athletes/patients and
checks them so risks can be eliminated.
During a workout, the trainer and the athletes/patients must have
unimpeded access to the device's control elements. They must be
able to use and regulate the device easily, quickly, and with preci-
sion.
The full attention of the trainer is required at all times during the
workout. If this cannot be ensured, the trainer must reduce the
main intensity level of the device/athlete/patient by at least 50 per-
cent.
The trainer must ensure that all requirements above are met.
The EMS training with the device must be supervised by a qualified
trainer. This also applies to private use of the device. Even if the
athlete/patient has qualified as a trainer, they may not use the
device without qualified supervision.
Only the mandatory basic miha bodytec training by the manufac-
turer and an optional additional higher-level EMS training qualify a
person as a trainer as described above.
