‘FIT FOR CHALLENGE’ is, no doubt, the name of the game and/or goal for every athlete and sports champion. The use of MRS in sports, especially competitive sports, has been one of the greatest successes of this treatment method for decades. Its successful use has long been recognized as a profound proof of effectiveness. In sports, functional reliability is the most crucial rule. Specific treatment methods are easily accepted, but just as easily withdrawn if they are not effective.
Meanwhile, a wide range of sports physicians, sports staff, athletes, as well as coaches and trainers are incorporating magnetic resonance stimulation as permanent element in their training program. The use of MRS can mean the decisive head start or crucial advantage in professional as well as popular sports where differences between the athlete’s performances are measured in milliseconds. Treating aching muscles successfully with pulsed magnetic fields – in former times accepted as not treatable – has long been clinically verified. Balancing the autonomic nervous system and thus, reducing stress, can be categorized as one of the main benefits in competition.
Trainings optimization:
MRS is known to increase endorphin production. This automatically results in an increase of the pain threshold which in turn allows harder and more effective training. Another effect is the instant switch into an aerobic phase (increased energy) which is achieved by accelerated ATP production.
Specific benefits of MRS in sports:
- Passive warm-up before training and competition
- Improved regeneration and relaxation after training and competition
- Assisting in advanced muscle aching, assisting in treating sore muscles after competition
- Reduced body tension, allowing more effective stretching of stiff muscles
- Accelerated build up of muscles and bones
- Better absorption of nutrients, vitamins etc. due to improved circulation
- Enhanced stamina and endurance due to higher oxygen utilization
- Stimulation of melatonin production and stabilization of sleep-wake-cycle (benefiting energy deficiency, jetlag and burn-out-syndromes)
- Injury reduction and accelerated healing processes of physical injuries (torn and pulled muscles, bruises, sprains, torn tendons, tendonitis, luxation and neural injuries)
How to use MRS during the training period and before competition:
Preparatory and transitional period:
MAT: 2 to 3 times a day for 8 minutes at high intensity (100%)
Before competition:
MAT 8 to 16 minutes at highest intensity (200% to 400%)
After competition and for regeneration:
MAT 16 minutes at low intensity (25% – 50%)
Important: In overtraining:
MAT 8 minutes at very low intensity (10%)
Before using MRS, it is advisable to hydrate the athlete adequately.
