You Should Feel
& Benefits
Suggestion
P1
Exercise Prep
This program gently warms up the muscles
prior to exercise; it feels like a rhythmic
massage.
Increase the intensity
until you get a strong
but comfortable muscle
movement, 10 min/duration.
P2
Active
Recovery
This program produces muscle twitches at
very low frequency and it feels like a tapping
massage, for muscle recovery from fatigue
and becoming more relaxed with reduced
stiffness.
Use it after intense exercise
to promote recovery and
relaxation, 30 min/duration.
P3
Active
Recovery
This program is similar to P2, except that the
muscle twitch rate slows down during the
session. It feels like a tapping massage, but
softer than P2.
Use it after intense exercise
to promote recovery and
relaxation, 20 min/duration.
P4
Active
Recovery
This program activates the muscle in a short
contraction/relaxation cycle.It feels like a
kneading massage, smother than P2/P3.
Use it after intense exercise
to promote recovery and
relaxation, 20 min/duration.
P5
Build
Endurance
This program uses a low frequency pulse
train which favours slow twitch fibers, for
developing aerobic capacity and capillary
supply. It improves fatigue resistance during
long duration moderate intensity exercise.
The exercise comprises
an alternating sequence of
work and rest phases lasting
several seconds. Increase
the intensity until you get
a strong and deep muscle
contraction. Do not exceed
your comfort level, 20min/
duration.
P6
Muscle
Strengthening
This program uses a pulse frequency
appropriate to fast twitch muscle fibers.
It improves their anaerobic capacity and
is used for improving maximum muscle
strength.
The exercise comprises a
sequence of work phases
separated longer relaxation
phases. Increase the
stimulation intensity until
you get a strong and deep
contraction. Do not exceed
your comfort level, 20 min./
Duration.

Using PurePulse Duo for EMS Treatment
When using PurePulse Duo for electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) any of the
6 programs may be used. The goal is to cause a muscle to contract and then
release. All 6 programs will achieve contraction and vary mainly by the rate
and duration of the contractions. As with any exercise regimen, start out slowly
with low intensity levels for a warm-up (5 to 10min). You may increase intensity
level and treatment time as you progress with your muscle performance.
Using PurePulse Duo regularly will maintain the benefit of your “exercise”.
