These programmes would be suitable for people that regularly practice sports
that require explosive activity and want to increase the level without any risk
of injury, such as throwing and sprinting events.
This treatment normally would be used for periods of up to 10 weeks starting
with level 1 and increasing to level 4 over a 10 week period. After the training
programme, one should continue to use level 3 or 4 once per week.
The positioning of the electrodes is very important and the electrode positions
as detailed in the manual should be studied before applying the programmes.
The stimulation training should be completed isometrically with the muscles
extended and  xed. i.e. the ankle for the Quadriceps to achieve static (isometric)
muscle contraction making sure the muscle stays in the same position and the
muscles are not extended as this would cause some pain and aching.
The level of stimulation determines the percentage of muscle  bres that will be
recruited. The higher the intensity (mA) the more  bres that will be stimulated
and thus more e ff ective the stimulation training will be. After the warming up
phase, one should increase the intensity gradually for the  rst 2-3 rest phases
so that muscle contraction is visible (30-40 mA).
MF = MODULATED FREQUENCY IN LINEAR STEPS
W/R = INTERMITTENT WORK/REST
CONT = CONTINUOUS
MODULATION TIME = EXPONENTIALLY
Example: Modulation time 10 seconds 150 μ S-250 μ S: means starting at
150 μ S increasing exponentially (fast then slow) to 250 μ S in  ve seconds and
returning (fast then slow) back to 150 μ S to complete the cycle in 10 seconds.

Developing the capillary bed density system surrounding the muscle  bers to improve
the resistance qualities of the fast glycolytic muscle twitch  bres and its recovery. Used
for all type of sports activities.
