It can make muscles contract so a session supports your muscle training, at a comfort level you set yourself, from level 1 upwards.

It can’t replace exercise or a balanced diet, promise a visible result by a certain date, or be used safely by everyone. See who should not use it below.

1. Wet the skin lightly, or follow the manual for your model, so contact is even.
2. Start at level 1 and raise it slowly until you feel a firm but comfortable contraction. If it stings or jumps, stop and lower the level.
3. Keep each session to about 15-20 minutes.
4. Charge with a 5V/2A adapter only. Do not use fast-charge adapters.

Place pads only on the muscles named in the manual, and keep pads from touching each other. Do not place pads across the chest or on the head or neck.

Who should not use it.

Do not use it if:

• You have a pacemaker or any other implanted electronic device.
• You are pregnant.
• The skin where the pads or electrodes would sit is broken, irritated or sensitive.

Ask a doctor first if you have a heart condition or epilepsy.
