What electrostimulation Using electricity to trigger a mechanical muscle response by stimulating the nervous system is a simple principle that has stood the test of time. Over the years, the effects have been improved by increasing the accuracy in controlling this electric current. Compex® has played a major part in this development. During the 1980s, in the midst of the ongoing electronic revolution, Compex focused on satisfying the requirements of the medical and scientific communities. The resulting close ties developed over time have allowed Compex’s innovative technology to be combined with an increasingly deeper knowledge of physiology. The result was the creation of electrostimulation, offering effectiveness, comfort and safety. Today, electrotherapy is an integral part of rehabilitation protocols, recognized by both the medical world and the world of sports. How does it work? The principle of electrostimulation is very simple: it reproduces precisely the processes that occur when our brain orders our muscles
to contract. When we decide to contract a muscle, our brain sends a signal in the form of an electric current that travels at high speed along the nerve fibres. Once it has reached its destination, the signal excites the motor nerve which transmits the information to the area immediately around the muscle and triggers the muscle contraction. With electrostimulation, excitation occurs directly on the motor nerve using electrical pulses that are perfectly adapted to guarantee effectiveness, safety and comfort of use. In fact, muscles cannot tell the difference between a voluntary contraction (triggered by the brain) and an electrically induced contraction: the work carried out is exactly the same. It’s natural! The fields of application are vast and little known Did you know that with electrostimulation you can: • Ease lower back pain • Alleviate neck pain • Recover faster and better after exertion • Improve stamina and endurance • Gain strength and speed • Work on continuity • Increase your muscle volume • Improve blood circulation • Prevent ankle sprains • Strengthen your abdominal muscles
4
can do for YOU! YOU And all this: • Without osteotendinous strain on the joints • Without mental fatigue • Without cardiac stress What makes us different: comfort, efficiency and safety! Compex stimulators differ in the types of programmes they offer, their accessories, their functions, etc. but they all meet the same comfort, efficiency and safety requirements. Why? To ensure effective muscular work, it is important to stimulate a maximum number of muscle fibres. Using a higher stimulation level means a greater number of muscle fibres will be working. And by providing a comfortable stimulation process, the user will find it easier to increase the stimulation levels, thereby increasing the number of muscle fibres working. Consequently, the results are enhanced.
How? The key is in controlling the current. Our stimulators are equipped with a constant current generator. This device generates a fully controlled electrical pulse, regardless of the specific features and variations in the tissues’ electrical resistance (skin or hair for example). This biphasic current eliminates any risk of burning and allows the device to be used safely in proximity to osteosynthesis equipment or any other metal implants. As is often the case whenever a technological innovation spreads to a wide-ranging market, the real possibilities offered by electrostimulation are sometimes diverted... Remember that electrostimulation is to be used as a complement to physical exercise, and under no circumstances does it replace it. The thorough approach and scientific diligence that rule all stages of the Compex product development process give this leading brand unchallenged supremacy in the field.

Be ready!
The benefit?
Prepare for this revolutionary technology with new COMPEX mi-READY. To allow as many of you as possible to have access to this technology, we have pre-fitted COMPEX PERFORMANCE and COMPEX ENERGY stimulators with certain muscle intelligence™ options.
• This allows you to upgrade your device by buying the mi-SENSOR as an additional accessory: you can either purchase it now or later; it’s your choice! • If not connected to the mi-SENSOR, the stimulator works conventionally.
Did you say
?
With the mi-SENSOR miniature sensor you are giving your workout sessions a new dimension, with unparalleled precision and efficiency. With the mi-SCAN function, the mi-SENSOR scans the selected muscle group and automatically adjusts the stimulator’s settings to the excitability of this area of the body, based on your own physiology. It is a truly personalised measurement. With the mi-ACTION function, the mi-SENSOR optimizes the effectiveness of your session by letting you combine voluntary contractions and electrostimulated contractions at your own pace. You are totally in control of your training. With the mi-TENS function, the mi-SENSOR makes it easy to adjust the stimulation levels to be used for pain management programmes. The adjustment takes place instantly and automatically, simplifying the procedure for the user and ensuring optimal results. With the mi-RANGE function, the mi-SENSOR indicates the optimum stimulation range to use (minimum and maximum adjustment levels) for programmes such as recovery or massage. The stimulation session is simple and effective. COMPEX mi-SPORT and COMPEX mi-FITNESS stimulators include all of the muscle intelligence™ functions.

HOW I TRAINED FOR “MY” NEW YORK MARATHON Paul is 38. He’s been running for 10 years. However, the New York Marathon was still on his target list. Paul explains how he prepared for this legendary event. The biggest marathon in the world requires serious training! “The New York Marathon is a mythical event. I'd already run 9 marathons and 2 “Marathons des Sables” (Sand Marathons), but whenever anyone said, “What about New York?” I had to say “Not yet”... So I decided to do it with my running club. If you want to take part on your own it’s really difficult and you end up being part of a lottery because there are so many people wanting to do it. Two million spectators lining the route and over 315 million television viewers across the world! That is frankly impressive. My aim was to do it in 3 hours. I developed my own training schedule over 9 weeks. During the first two weeks, I mostly worked on my speed in track sessions, five days a week doing interval training: 800m at full speed followed by 400m jogging. Ten times in a row! One of these 5 sessions lasted over 3 hours to prepare my body for that famous marathon “wall”. I used two devices as support: a heart rate monitor to check my heart rate and my Compex with its “recovery” function, which I used after each major run. I also used my stimulator on other occasions: when I felt a weakness in my ankle, I didn’t want to take any risks, and so replaced one training session with an hour of muscle training using my Compex. Over the next four weeks, weeks I worked on endurance with longer, slower track sessions. During this phase, I also made myself do a cross-country run of over 3 hours, completed by a Capillarization programme, still with the aim of getting me through the legendary “wall”. This precaution proved to be worthwhile because on D-day the weak spell only lasted 4 or 5 minutes and then my body took over and took off again! sleep. You need a lot of sleep, but after intensive training And then there’s sleep late in the day, it’s not easy to drift off. As I was working at the same time, 8
SPORT I didn’t have much choice. The most difficult thing is to plan everything so that you’re in top shape on D-day. Coming back to my “self-designed” training, the last three weeks I simply jogged three or four times a week to maintain my fitness. I felt good and often wanted to “cut loose”, but the most important thing in this pre-race phase is to be revitalized, to regain your strength… It’s almost like resting. This was when I most appreciated the Oxygenation and Massage functions of my Compex. I felt as light as a feather! I also used it regularly, five times a week, to strengthen my muscles without getting tired. And that’s great! At last, the big day arrived. A beautiful autumn sun shone on the Verrazano Bridge where the
race starts. And after the traditional American National Anthem, the starting gun was fired at 10.10 am. There were about 40,000 of us ready for the dash! Coming out of Brooklyn and in Central Park, it was absolutely crazy. Never since have I experienced such an atmosphere. A short run through the Bronx, where I had a bit of a weak spell before we headed back into Manhattan. And then, the last few kilometres in Central Park to the applause of an amazing crowd... I finished in 3 hours 12 minutes. But the most important preparation for a marathon is in your head! For five months I had been putting stickers of the New York Marathon in my bathroom, my office, my car and even over my bed! I thought about it all the time. I can tell you that when you become totally absorbed in an upcoming race, you get there, even if it’s hard.”

“For professional cyclists, quick recovery and avoiding injuries are crucial! That’s why my fellow mates from the Columbia HTC team and I use our Compex daily. Speeding up the recovery phase allows me to be in top form, both for the next training session or the next race. Obviously, stage races are extremely demanding, that’s why proper recovery is the key to success – that’s what makes the difference. After an intensive day of racing or after harsh training, my Compex helps me get back in shape in no time, whether I’m on the move or in my hotel room. My Compex helps me recover faster and helps me train more efficiently!”

“BEING FIT ALL YEAR ROUND: I AM ON MY WAY!” EMMA “I’d love to exercise more and on a more regular basis, but I don’t seem to find the time to do it! New Year’s resolutions don’t always last, and then, the effects of my lack of physical activity show up in the cruellest way, namely, on my abs and dress size. So, as a complement to the fitness course I am taking, I’ve chosen to work with the COMPEX FIT: it’s the simplest solution I’ve found to maintain my figure and be in shape. I love it: I can take it anywhere; I turn it on and immediately have access to the goal I am working on. Right now, I am at session 7 of 18 of the “Tone your arm muscles” programme. The pace is given by the stimulator, just like a coach – 3 times a week – it’s really motivating, and I feel certain of what I am doing.”

“IF YOU RESPECT YOUR BODY, YOU GAIN SELF RESPECT” My job is fairly intense and doesn’t leave me enough time for exercise! When you spend 1 or 2 days a week sitting in meetings with your legs crossed, your circulation really starts to suffer. My COMPEX VITALITY eases that feeling of heaviness in the legs and also acts as a preventive device. It’s so easy to use and precise. I generally do a 15 minute session twice a week, choosing a vascular programme (to alleviate discomfort in the legs, or using the lymphatic drainage option). These sessions really do me a world of good!
