Placement Stimulation
of electrodes positions
Lie down on your stomach
or stand up
Special recommendations:
For the buttocks, the m—1
mode requires very good
muscular qualities and is not
compatible with certain
morphological configurations
In the event of repeated failures
with the m—1 mode, we
recommend work on the buttocks
in the "classic" mode
Lie down stretched out on your
back, which can be slightly raised
The work can be done in two
ways:
statically, if you are simply
■
trying to voluntarily start the
muscular contraction phase
dynamically, if you want to
■
associate an exercise with the
movement that consists of bringing
the trunk towards the thighs; in
this case, take care not to accen-
tuate the lumbar region arch
(lordosis); to do this, it is essential
to work always with your knees
well bent
Take up a seated position
Special recommendations:
Because of the anatomical and
morphological specificity of the low
back muscles region, it is necessary
to have muscles with particularly
good performance to work in the
m—1 mode
In the event of repeated failures
with this work mode, we recommend
work in the "classic" mode or to
use the recommended placement
for combined stimulation of the
low back muscles and erector
spinalis (picture n° 14); in this
case, always take care to position
the m—4 system at the level
of the dorsal region muscles, as
shown in the picture
Voluntary start of
the contraction phase
Vigorously contract your buttock
muscles, while strongly trying to
close your buttocks and trying to
bring your thighs behind your
trunk
Strongly contract your abdominal
muscles, while strongly trying to
raise your head and shoulders
from their support
Vigorously contract the low back
muscles, while making an effort
to sit as tall as possible
