MEVENIG RIO
FRENCH PERSONAL TRAINER
I work in a gym, but also at home.
My clientele is varied and interested in everything from health,
returning to sports, aesthetics, self confidence, and weight loss, to
more specific objectives related to weight training, running, cycling,
and preparing for police or fireman contests.
I began using Compex® in my own workouts to improve recovery. Once I had discovered its other features I used it for pain management, massage, and physical preparation. Then I used it with my clients in their personal training sessions, which gave them added value and improved my coaching.
I use Compex® a lot in combined sessions; I combine voluntary exercises with Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) contraction to boost and energize my sessions and get results more quickly, and with both beginners and experienced athletes. It is the choice of the exercise associated with Compex® that will enable maximum muscle fibres, optimized training and help achieve better results.
In terms of results for my clients, I have noticed a real gain in recovery, which is faster and allows for better quality sessions. In the treatment of muscle and tendinitis, Compex® relieves pain and promotes healing. On the physical preparation of runners or cyclists I have also seen real progress in terms of gaining strength while keeping the muscle mass gain. Gain in muscle tone is also much faster for users looking to lose weight or tone up.
Compex® boosts and optimizes its sessions by targeting a specific work goal. Thanks to the good recovery it enables, it makes it easier to chain drives and prevent injuries. Best of all, Compex® allows you to complete your training and planning at home, meaning you can reach your goals much faster.

SPANISH PERSONAL TRAINER
It seems that electrostimulation has suddenly become fashionable, but
the reality is that high level athletes and physiotherapists have been
using Compex® for long enough to be able to attest to its success.
Compex® is not a fad, it is a reality taken to the highest level. It enables
users to recover and improve their muscle condition, muscle gain,
movement, and quality of life, be it in sport or during their daily life challenges.
As a personal trainer, I believe Compex® is best used to train for specific goals. My clients must trust that I am fully committed to helping them reach their goals, and I must be able to trust my tools.
When explaining the training process to my clients, I make sure they understand that without the high-end technology of Compex®, certain goals will take a lot longer to achieve, and in some cases may be impossible.
While I’ve used the Compex® Fit 5.0 to achieve a lot of different results, I find it most effective in helping my clients compensate their weaker muscle groups, and to strengthen and recover muscle structures compromised during sport or daily activities.
One such client is Sara Lobla, a wedding photographer who suffers from back, shoulder and knee pain due to the physical demands of her job. When Sara is preparing for a wedding, I can take these demands into account when planning her training routine with Compex®. This helps me to know exactly what programmes to use during her training sessions.
And just as athletes have down time, so Sara has periods with less work. This gives me a window to really focus on muscle training to give her more strength and resistance, allowing her to focus on her job.
Working with 2 channels simplifies any type of workout and lets me focus on individual muscle groups without the need to deactivate additional channels that would be present on other devices.
Sara has now successfully relieved her back, shoulder, and knee pain.
Besides using the Compex® Fit 5.0 to improve her muscle condition, helping her to keep taking impressive photos, we also use this device to help her get in shape and tone her buttocks and abs.
Ultimately, nothing escapes from the Compex® Fit 5.0!

An electrostimulator simulates the brain by sending information to the body through electrical impulses.
These impulses are disseminated by electrodes placed on the body, which pass through the skin and on to the nervous system. The muscles don’t know the difference. A Compex® electrostimulator works your muscles in the same way voluntary movements do.
You are concerned about your well-being and your appearance, and want to have a well-balanced body. However, a sedentary lifestyle, an inadequately balanced diet and tight schedules may all be factors that negatively impact the harmony of your figure. The targeted effects of the FITNESS programmes will help you in your efforts to maintain a healthy lifestyle and benefit from the positive effects of intense muscular activity; well-toned muscles, a shapely figure and a firm body. Used regularly, these programmes will help you regain or maintain your figure.
In order to get the best out of her programmes, you have to follow 3 basic rules:
- Regularity => A muscle that is not stimulated regularly will not adapt. You have to train
minimum 3 times a week by muscle group for 4 to 6 weeks in order to get visible results. - Intensity => To the maximum bearable intensity in order to stimulate as many muscle fibres as possible. At the beginning, the contractions might surprise you and you may ache in the days following. This is normal, because EMS will enable you to develop an important quantity of muscle fibres, more than during a normal bodybuilding training session.
- Combination of proposed exercises during contraction phase => Will enable you
to shorten your training sessions with maximum efficiency, without putting any
strain on your joints, but with heavier loads. The strength of EMS combined with
voluntary contractions will multiply the benefits of your session. You will get
a real muscular benefit!

• Respect indicated electrode placements
• Change your electrodes regularly (an electrode with damaged gel is less comfortable to use and therefore less efficient)
• Always try to improve:
– During the session, by lightly increasing the intensity every 3 – 5 contractions
– From one session to the next, by setting a goal to exceed the level of intensity reached
during the previous session
– By voluntarily contracting your muscles during the stimulation, this is usually more
comfortable
