• Only use the electrodes supplied by Marc Pro. Other electrodes • Note: It is fine to charge your device may present a risk of unsuitable electrical characteristics with your stimulator.
It’s important to realize that electrode placement is not an exact science. Don’t be overly concerned with pin point accuracy or matching any diagram exactly. The Marc Pro was designed to be simple to use; you don’t need to know about motor points, trigger points, or any significant anatomy or physiology.

Get into a relaxed and still position (laying down, sitting in a chair or on a couch). You should be comfortable and the muscles being worked should be free to contract without resistance. (If you are tense and resist the contractions or if you’re in a position that causes significant resistance you will not benefit from Marc Pro)
Page 12
For conditioning and enhanced performance the only difference is consistency. Using Marc Pro proactively (e.g., 1-2 times per day 3 or more days per week) creates the conditioning benefits that will not only help muscles recover better, but also help them perform better. Note: Longer sessions (1-4 Hours) can be used if needed to obtain desired benefits.

Marc Pro won’t fatigue your muscles regardless of duration, but keep it convenient (e.g., if you’re watching a two-hour movie no need to stop Marc Pro after 30 min; keep it going and if needed turn down the intensity a bit to prevent it from getting annoying).

(For Several Target Areas at Once) The following examples show how you can activate more muscle groups at the same time, which can be helpful for those with numerous target areas for improvement. The compromise is that each muscle group is stimulated less than in the previous “Focused Target Area”...
