While performing any physical activity, the muscle contraction occurs thanks to the transmission of electric pulses from the brain to the muscles via the nervous system. The electrostimulation, generating this signal, can perform an intense physical muscular activity without any effort. The fundamental parameters required to obtain a suitable muscular contraction refer to the features of the pulse sent by the device to the motor points to generate the muscular contraction. The best wave shape for the exciting-motor electrostimulation is the two-phase symmetrical square wave which assures a safe use, a higher comfort and the best efficiency. Such a wave is made of two electric pulses with a Tp and a Tn time (a positive and a negative one with the same intensity and duration period).
The square wave allows a maximum load for a fixed period of time and it is less irritating than others. The bidirectional pulses with a zero average are safer and have been recognized by the scientific world as more efficient. Other kinds of pulses, such as the sinusoidal ones, the Kotz waves or the single phase pulses could be unsuitable or cause pain. The working and resting periods, the frequencies and the pulse durations are other important elements to determine the features and the results of the electrostimulation. The pulse supplied by the Magic Form electrostimulators is a two-phase symmetrical square one with a zero average and it grants the maximum safety during the device use by protecting the skin against possible burns, which might be caused by a single-phase pulse. The two-phase symmetrical square wave is accepted by the whole scientific world as the most suitable and the less noisy for the stimulation and it allows to bear high intensity contractions. The staff of Professor Poumarat lightly modified the wave in order to make it more acceptable by introducing a pause (Tr) between the positive and the negative pulse. With this solution most of the Magic Form users can consider the stimulation more acceptable than other competing products. The Magic Form muscular electrostimulators have been designed following some innovative researches developed by the Laboratory of Motor Performance at the Clermont-Ferrand University (France), which defined all the parameters required to obtain a perfect stimulation. Gym Computer is supplied with 14 programs suggesting effective solutions to several problems which could be interesting for men and women of any age. These programs are divided into four fundamental groups: • Programs for Fitness, Beauty and Health
