Benefits of electrostimulation
E lectrostimulation is a very effective way to
make your muscles work:
■ with significant improvement of
different muscular qualities
■
without cardio-vascular or mental
fatigue
■
with limited stress on the joints and
tendons. Electrostimulation thus
allows a greater quantity of work by
the muscles compared with voluntary
activity.
T o be effective, this work must
involve the greatest possible number
of muscular fibres. The number of
fibres working depends on the
stimulation energy. The maximum
tolerable energy should therefore be
used. The user controls this aspect of
stimulation. The higher the
stimulation energy, the greater the
number of muscular fibres that are
working and, therefore, the more
significant the progress achieved. To
maximise results, Compex
recommends that you complement
your electrostimulation sessions with
other efforts, such as:
● regular physical exercise
● proper and healthy nutrition
● balanced lifestyle.
