You may now choose the first measurement setup by selecting the
muscles to be measured from the main screen: Pods & Muscles.
Important: the measurement always requires first the muscle
selection which needs to be confirmed by the pod selection from
the bottom bar.
You can start measuring and training either with Instant
Measurement or by Workout Plans.
DURING TRAINING
See your muscle activation and fatigue in real-time.
Choose what’s shown on the UI
• If you are measuring with more than two pods you can see more
information by tapping the activation power monitor on the screen.
• You can see activation power curve by swiping the screen
sideways.
• You can modify the load and the number of repetitions
information between sets, after set or in the training summary.
• In the Routine Results you can see the activation power curve
showing each repetition by clicking the cumulative Activation
Volume bar.
AFTER TRAINING
Get instant summary of your muscle activation and fatigue. You
can also compare different muscles and exercises with each
other.
KEY FEATURES
When you start your first measurements for a new muscle you
will get a lot of ”new max”-indications, as Mpower records the
maximum activation values for each measured muscle. Mpower
uses these maximum values to calibrate the activation power
monitor and shows each repetition as a percentage of your muscle
specific maximum.
Activation Power
• Total Activation Power-indicator shows you activation power of
each repetition produced by your muscle during the training.
• Fast Activation Power-indicator shows you activation power of
each repetition produced by your muscle fast-twitch fibers during
the training.
• Activation Power Curve shows the absolute (not relative)
activation levels over time.
Activation Volume
• For each set Mpower calculates your muscle specific cumulative
activation power as Activation Volume. This makes it easy for you
to see activation produced by each muscle in each exercise and
to be able to compare the training efficiency between sets of the
same exercise and between exercises. By clicking on the Activation
Volume bar you can see the activation curve of individual
repetitions.
Fatigue Index
• See how your muscle fatigue develops. You can use Fatigue
Index -indicator for speed strength training to monitor when your
muscle fast-twitch fibers start getting tired. You can also use it
for effective endurance strength training to stress the muscle
appropriately and strive to desired muscle fatigue level.

5. Attachment of the strap to the leg:
Tie the strap around the leg and attach
the connector to the other end of the
pod as in step two. Use buckle to adjust
the appropriate length of the strap.
6. Focus the pod on top of the muscle to
be measured.
Using the adjustable straps
1. Take one pod and one strap. There
are two sizes of the strap. Select
the short strap for the arm and long
strap for the leg.
Attach the other end of the strap to
the pod. Make sure the buckle stays
on the outside of the strap.
4. Attachment to the arm:
Attach the other connector to the
pod as in previous picture. Pull the
strap around the arm. Use buckle to
adjust the appropriate length of the
strap. Focus the pod on top of the
muscle to be measured.
3. Make sure the skin is dry before the attachment.
Pod needs to be in skin contact.
2. Attachment of the strap to the pod:
Press the strap connector into the
groove of the pod in this angle
Turn the connector straight
The strap connector is attached to
