FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q.
How does the AbCommand™ iX2™ fitness belt really work?
A.
The AbCommand™ iX2™ fitness belt is designed to copy the
messages sent from your brain to the muscle during exercise.
This message causes the muscle to contract and relax.
Q.
Can muscles become over-developed or strained when
using this device?
A.
No - the principle is the same for general training of muscles
- the more exercise, with suitable periods of rest, the stronger
the muscles become.
Q.
Can this device be used for all ages?
A.
No. The AbCommand™ iX2™ belt is suitable for use only by adults.
Q.
Will I find it uncomfortable?
A.
As long as the Conductive Pads are moist and kept firmly
against the skin you will not feel any unpleasantness. At low
intensity you will feel a slight tingling sensation but as the
intensity gets higher you will only feel pleasant contractions.
Start using it on your upper abs first, not directly over the belly
button where most people are most sensitive.
Q.
Should the intensity settings be the same for each muscle?
A.
Each muscle will respond differently, so intensities will
accordingly be different. Move the belt around to find the right
trigger point that gives you maximum contractions.
Q.
Are there any contra-indications to use of the device?
A.
Yes - Please carefully read all warnings and precautions on
pages 2-4 of this manual.
Q.
I am getting a prickling sensation but no contractions.
A.
Move the belt slightly to find the right trigger points that give
maximum contractions and the most pleasant feeling. Try
increasing the intensity. This could also be caused because
either the belt does not have enough Conductive Gel on it
(water-based) or is not tightly placed against the skin. Failing
this, remove the belt and wash the inner surface with a wet
cloth and soapy water to remove body oils.
