Use During Voluntary Training

Tips to incorporate electrostimulation during your workout.

The stimulation sessions can be done outside or during voluntary training.

When voluntary training and stimulation are done during the same session, it is generally recommended that the voluntary training be done first followed by the stimulation. This means that the voluntary training is not done on muscle fibers which are already tired. This is particularly important for strength and explosive strength training.

However, in resistance training, it can be very useful to proceed in the reverse order. Before the voluntary training, by means of stimulation for resistance, a "specific pre-fatigue session" is carried out on the muscle fibers without general and cardio-vascular fatigue. In this way, the voluntary effort on the "prepared" fibers will push the glycolytic metabolism faster and further.
