The
body builder is an athlete who needs extremely targeted training programmes.
It is definitely not easy to have muscles grow without any fat around. Apart
from the classic working methods that take place in the sports centre, electrostimulation
can be of excellent use. In fact, more than in any other discipline, the detailed
definition of a single muscle can make the difference in contests and probably
classic exercises will not do to produce the desired effects as the body has
areas where fat commands. Electrostimulation is the only way to localise contraction,
also of the smallest and most hidden muscle, thanks to the different forms of
the electrodes and thanks to the specific programmes of this card. The parameters
of the use reflect the procedure of dry exercises and propose electrical impulses
with appropriately studied impulses and duration times that can be activated
manually or through a joy stick. Especially the programme “muscle definition”
appears to be extremely interesting as it helps fat to transform into muscles
through a continuous and deep stimulation: perfect for the pre-contest stage
to obtain the ideal form. The body building card does not have any rapid strength
programmes, neither aerobic programmes, as the training of these athletes is
subject to a muscle construction that exiles from classic sports, like achieving
a result related to a timed performance or else. We all know that the body builder
searches for the best appearances of his own body to compete in real “beauty
contests”. We should not forget though that in order to obtain acceptable results,
it takes enormous sacrifices. And body building at high level is also mentally
a tough and extremely fatiguing sport. Nothing refers to cases of fractures
during training. There is however, a pathology rather diffused: that of inflammations
of tendons and joint structures, caused by too heavy weights athletes try to
lift up. The specific card contains a series of antalgic programmes that try
to cover the wide spectrum of possible painful situations one could run into.
Of course, like all the other cards also to this one can be added different
programmes, studying personalised interventions.
