  • Page 47: Dosing And Exercise

    Dosing & Exercise This chapter presents a general testing and treatment paradigm and a step-by-step process for a first time Client user. As with any exercise program, it is necessary to determine a client’s baseline performance in order to administer proper exercise and progression parameters. For best results, clients should be regularly evaluated against their baseline to be sure treatment is sufficient and effective.
  • Page 48 Dosing Test The Dosing Test begins with a warm-up, consisting of 6 repetitions (12 strides total) performed at a submaximal effort. The purpose of the warm-up is to ease the client into their dosing test so that maximum effort is not applied from a cold start. The Dosing Test itself consists of 6 repetitions (12 strides total), performed at the Client’s safe maximum effort.

  • Page 49: Client Training

    30 minutes. Dosing Re-Test BTE suggests re-testing Clients after they complete 3 successful exercise sessions, due to the rapid strength gains many people experience with eccentric muscle work on the Eccentron. Re-testing every 4th session provides an appropriate and accurate target range that is individually tailored to each Client’s current capability.

  • Page 55 Foot Position Instruct clients to keep their feet flat on the foot pedal beds with heels against the heel cup at all times during exercise, and to never remove feet from the moving pedals. If foot movement is needed for any reason like repositioning, Pause the exercise first.

  • Page 56: Practice Session

    Practice Session The software allows first-time users an opportunity to practice the exercise prior to performing the Dosing Test. During the Practice Session, encourage the Client to resist against the pedals as they come toward the Client. Effective cues, depending on the advised effort, include, “Try to slow down the pedal motion,” and, “Try to stop the pedal from coming toward you.”...

  • Page 63: Exercise Program

    Exercise Program The Eccentron exercise program provides a “ramp-up” of gradually increasing duration, with intermittent Dosing Tests to properly set the Target Range. Additionally, the exercise session itself includes a short warm-up, active exercise, and brief cool-down stages. Exercise Preparation Clients should perform a general warm up for 5–10 minutes, or as Clinician recommends, prior to using the Eccentron.
  • Page 64 Pre-set Exercise Manually-set Exercise Sample Exercise Session Stages Warm Up In addition to the general therapy warm up, the pre-set exercise session provides a short period of time at the beginning of the session for the Client to become adjusted to the exercise resistance. This lasts for 1 minute, or 10% of the duration, whichever is greater.
  • Page 65 Interactive Game The Eccentron software displays a fun, animated game screen to teach, entertain, and motivate the client while exercising. The game screen portrays the Client as a hiker going downhill. Select Start to begin the pedal and screen activity. Force bars below the hiker show real-time force effort exerted on the pedals. Figure 27 - Start of Game Screen Live Data Display The screen displays live collection data for the exercise to help the Client and Clinician monitor...
  • Page 66 Performance Motivation The interactive game trains clients to stay in a particular force range, for neuromuscular performance gains. The goal for the “hiker” is to have all the force bars land inside the Target Range band. The “% on Target” area displays the accuracy of each leg individually in hitting the target, as well as an average for both legs.
  • Page 67 • If a diamond is earned, the diamond accrual at the top of the screen increases. • If a diamond is missed, there is no “penalty”.
