The increased muscle activity as a result of localized vibration training (LVT) has been shown to increase isometric and dynamic force production, dramatically increasing maximal strength and power.
This makes the Pulse Device an incredible tool for increasing strength wherever you need it most. Whether you're just trying to get back to your strong self after an injury, or you just have a certain weak area, the Pulse Device is there for you.
LV has also been shown to improve flexibility through increasing joint range of motion. These improvements to strength in combination with improved flexibility have even been shown to result in an increased jump height.
Shop NowThe Pulse Device emits vibrations that mimic a pulsation or a tapping feeling onto your muscles. This repetitively draws your attention back to the muscle and drastically improves your focus and proprioception (muscle sense). This concept is based off an old training/rehabilitation technique called muscle tapping, where your spotter gently taps on your muscle while you're performing an exercise in order to increase engagement of said muscle. These attentional cues have been proven to increase muscle activity and even hypertrophy.
Increase Strength
The low-frequency vibrations used by the Pulse Device have been proven to increase strength by up to 21% during isolated exercises. Please note that the Pulse Device is not meant to be used during compound lifts where your body is supposed to be utilizing a variety of different muscles at the same time.
Buy NowThe Pulse Device utilizes low-frequency vibrations that are proven to help you recruit up to 97% of the muscle fibers in a target muscle compared to a standard workout that recruits a maximum of 40% of muscle fibers in a target muscle. This occurs because your muscle is forced to try and stabilize itself while it vibrates, which leads to that same muscle working substantially harder while you lift. This facilitates stronger contractions that lead to more results.
Repair Muscle Imbalances
By providing a cue that trains your brain to know exactly where specific muscles are, the Pulse Device helps users repair even their most stubborn muscle imbalances. These imbalances can be a result of performance differences (ie. using one side more than another), injury, or neurological defect. Whether you have a lagging muscle that just won't seem to grow, or you've had an injury that has prevented you from isolating a certain muscle, we got you.
Not feeling the right muscle working? This is due to secondary muscles and joints picking up the slack during your workout. By placing the Pulse Device onto a specific muscle, your attention is drawn away from these secondary groups and you're able to target and isolate the primary muscle that you actually intended on working during your lift. This ensures that you'll feel your workout in the right place and not put unnecessary stress on adjacent areas.
Improve Flexibility & Range of Motion
Low-frequency vibration stimulates stretch receptors called muscle spindles. By doing so, the Pulse Device is able to increase your flexibility and range of motion so that you can move and feel better than ever.
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the most common questions we get:
How does the Pulse Device work?
The Pulse Device sticks directly onto your muscle(s) and sends out localized vibrations that help you perform better and recover faster.
Localized Vibration Training (LVT) is an evolution of Whole Body Vibration (WBV) Training, whereby instead of applying a vibration to the whole body through a vibrating platform, the vibrations are targeted on individual muscles. These vibrations are naturally occurring low-frequency sinusoidal vibrations, which increase muscle activity in the target area and improve performance, rehabilitation from injury, recovery after exercise, and even preparation for exercise. In conjunction, these vibrations mimic an old bodybuilding technique called muscle tapping, where your spotter gently taps on the muscle you’re training in order to strengthen your mind-muscle connection with said muscle. Our product imitates this tapping feeling by creating a vibrational pulse directly onto the target muscle.
How does the Pulse Device stick to your body?
The Pulse Device utilizes medical grade silicone gel adhesives that can last for up to 3 workouts. These adhesives are double-sided, moisture resistant, and easy to use. Once one side becomes less sticky, flip it over and use the other side for the skin! Since you get 20 adhesives when purchasing the bundle, you won't have to repurchase for many months. We encourage our customers to take advantage of the alcohol wipes that we provide because the longevity of the adhesive goes up substantially if you apply it on dry, clean skin. You can even apply water droplets to the adhesive to clean any dirt off of them and help them last even longer.
Can I train more effectively with the Pulse Device?
Absolutely! The Pulse Device helps fitness enthusiasts of every level take their workouts to the next level. Whether you're a beginner who is just getting started, an intermediate lifter who has been training for 6-12 months, or even an expert who has been working out for years, our product will help you feel, activate, and grow your muscles. If you're someone who feels like their plateuing, has muscle imbalances (ie. right bicep bigger than the left bicep), can't activate certain muscles, can't feel certain muscles working, can't break past genetic weak points, can't seem to get a good pump, or someone who just wants to intensify their workouts, our product is for YOU!
Can I recover faster with the Pulse Device?
Yes, dramatically! Low frequency vibrations utilized by the Pulse Device have been shown to reduce pain pressure, and muscle soreness, making our product a more portable and hands off alternative percussive therapy to massage guns.
