ELECTRICAL MUSCLE STIMULATION BENEFITS
RECOVER FASTER AND
REDUCE MUSCLE SORENESS.
One of the primary theories behind the effectiveness of EMS for recovery is by promoting venous return and thereby reducing lactic acid. During anaerobic endurance training the body produces energy without the use of oxygen, this creates a by-product referred to as lactic acid. The lactic acid is then flushed out to be flushed out elsewhere. But during heavy training the accumulation of lactic acid surpasses its clearance rate, and thereby builds up inside the muscles. This is where the burning sensation comes from.
PlayMakar EMS programs P2 and P3 programs produce muscle twitches at a low frequency. Ideal for muscle recovery from fatigue to help decrease muscle stiffness. Great for recovery and relaxation following an intense workout.

BUILD STRENGTH &
TARGET FAST TWITCH
PlayMakar EMS is helping athletes get cleaner and more complete muscle contraction in conjunction with resistance training. This is particularly important when targeting fast-twitch muscle fibers.
While EMS will give athletes a more effective muscle contraction than conventional training, it shouldn’t be the exclusive means of strength training unless you’re rehabbing an injury. Best results are achieved when EMS is used in conjunction with resistance training.
P6 program
uses a low frequency pulse to initiate fast twitch fiber for developing capacity and capillary supply and developing muscle strength.

MUSCLE ENDURANCE
Muscular endurance is a huge necessity in just about any sport. Stamina is one’s
ability to create maximum force for an extended amount of time and is necessary in football, basketball, boxing, bodybuilding, weight lifting, baseball, soccer, etc.
PlayMakars are defined by their ability to deliver results when it matters the most.
The PlayMakar P5 program uses a low frequency pulse to initiate slow twitch fiber for developing aerobic capacity and capillary supply. Also, it helps improve fatigue resistance.

JUMP START WARM UP
The warm-up should gently prepare the body for exercise by gradually increasing the heart rate and circulation; this will loosen the joints and increase blood flow to the muscles. Stretching the muscles prepares them for physical activity and prevents injuries.
P1 program
gently warms up muscles prior to intense exercise.

TENS HELPS ACUTE &
CHRONIC PAIN SYMPTOMS
Based on the Pain Gate Control theory, TENS is designed to interrupt the pain signal to your brain, also increasing the production of endorphin, the body’s “feel good chemical.” Various timed outputs and frequencies are available within P1-P8 TENS programs.
PlayMakar TENS is designed to get you into the post acute injury phase quicker to allow your transition to EMS programs and other rehab activities.
