The 5 has three programs for warming-up and exercising
SLENDERTONE REVIVE S
your muscles.
Exercise Preparation - Program 1 (12 Min.)
This program gently warms up the muscles prior to exercise. It uses a
technique called "twitch potentiation" to prepare muscle fibers for
exercise. It feels like a rhythmic massage. Increase the intensity until
you get a strong but comfortable muscle movement.
Build Endurance - Program 5 (20 Min.)
This program uses a low frequency pulse train which favours slow twitch
fibers. It develops their aerobic capacity and capillary supply and thereby
improves fatigue resistance during long duration moderate intensity
exercise. The exercise comprises an alternating sequence of work and
rest phases lasting several seconds. Increase the intensity until you get
a strong and deep muscle contraction. Do not exceed your comfort
level.
Muscle Strengthening - Program 6 (20 Min.)
This program uses a pulse frequency appropriate to fast twitch muscle
fibers. It improves their anaerobic capacity and is used for improving
maximum muscle strength. The exercise comprises a sequence of work
phases separated by longer relaxation phases. Increase the stimulation
intensity until you get a strong and deep contraction. Do not exceed
your comfort level.

Your 5 has three programs for active recovery following
SLENDERTONE REVIVE S
exercise.
Active Recovery 1 - Program 2 (30 Min.)
This program produces muscle twitches at very low frequency and it
feels like a tapping massage. This stimulates blood flow and helps
speed up the removal of lactic acid as it accelerates the exchange
between the blood supply and the muscle fibers. As a result, the
muscles recover more quickly from fatigue, becoming more relaxed
with reduced stiffness. Use it after intense exercise to promote recovery
and relaxation.
Active Recovery 2 - Program 3 (20 Min.)
This 20-minute program is similar to Active Recovery 1 except that the
muscle twitch rate slows down during the session. It feels like a tapping
massage, but softer than Active Recovery 1.
Active Recovery 3 - Program 4 (20 Min.)
This form of stimulation activates the muscles in a rhythmic motion in a
short contraction/ relaxation cycle. It feels like a kneading massage and
is smoother than the other active recovery programs.
