TREATMENT DESCRIPTIONS

Following is a short description of the programs provided by the
electrostimulator.
For further information about the programs you can download from
our website globuscorporation.com, a complete guide, where you can
find all the indications and suggestions to carry out the treatment in the
correct way.
SPORT
WARM-UP:
increases muscular temperature for better training
preparation. Increases the blood flow to and metabolism of the muscle.
Recommended before training sessions or competitions.
Intensity: low or intermediate.
MAXIMUM STRENGTH: improves maximal force capability and increases
muscular mass. Allows training with maximum load and reduced trauma
risk as compared to classical training. Recommended for activities
requiring great physical strength. Also useful during the early preparation
period as it trains the muscles to receive significant stress.
Intensity: maximum, at pain threshold limit. During active Rest, adjust the
intensity to obtain comfortable contractions.
ENDURANCE STRENGTH: improves the ability to display a high level of
force for an extended period of time and to resist toxin accumulation,
thus delaying muscular fatigue. The program involves a long series of
lengthy contractions, alternated with brief active rest. Recommended
for sports requiring intense muscular work for an extended period of time.
Intensity: intermediate or maximum. Active Rest should induce muscular
vibrations.
EXPLOSIVE STRENGTH: the Explosive Force program increases the ability
to rapidly achieve maximum levels of force. The objective is to recruit
the maximum number of muscle fibers in the shortest time possible. It
is recommended to begin with a Maximal Force program to prepare
the muscle for the Explosive Force program. Recommended in all sports
requiring maximal force under natural load conditions, such as sprints,
ball sports, and alpine skiing. Intensity: maximum muscular contraction at
pain threshold limit. Active Rest should induce muscular vibrations.
DECONTRACTING: enables effective muscle relaxation thanks to the
pleasant contractions that increase blood circulation. These programs
can be used whenever muscular relaxation is needed. Intensity: low to
intermediate.
CAPILLARIZATION: increases the blood flow to the muscle and improves
muscle resistance and recovery. An increased arterial capacity keeps
the primary and secondary capillary network active, thus improving the
tissue oxygenation system.
