Electro shock therapy with steroids!

[pauladrive]

I was thinking say someone is submitting there bodies to changes for the positive say via Anabolic, your body is going to react alot faster not to say recover alot faster as well , My Theory is is the following , There are cases where a person under goes therapy and there muscle is too weak so is given therapy, the electro stimulation is used to rapidly contract the muscle ... think about this for a sec ... although it is true To increase the muscle size you have got to provide it with resistance as with free weights,the more resistance the bigger the muscle. But say you do your normal routine gym etc , then you slap on these electrode patches in place say lats anywhere would you not get MORE results , of course not over training? Well my brothers got back issues and hes got this machine called Flextens pretty hardcore ive been putting the patches on my shoulders, i see it twitch , in my abs for 20 min after im done it feels like ive done 2,000 crunchs im i wrong here or is this a Great mix! Im on cardio, gym , juice, diet, and electrode shock and not to the head . I seriously need some opinions and not some stupid post but real feedback , i think im on to something here

The current does cause the muscle to contract but not enough to do much for its strength nor mass. Normal muscle activity must be exceeded to gain mass and strength. The electro therapy`s benefit is in keeping the nerve- muscle communication from deteriorating in cases of temporary paralysis or other causes which prohibit muscle movement. I guess if youi used it a LOT on a muscle you might notice a change.

What if you only concentrate it on abs only wouldn't it give you amazing results considering you can adjust the intensity of electro , just on abs what are your thoughts then ?

I`ve played around witha TENS unit ,which is about the same thing, and got bored befor seeing any results.But Hell, maybe longer time would produce results. The muscle IS doing work with the electro. Increasing the rate of contraction above the norm ought to count for something. Maybe I`ll dig it out and stick the electrodes on my abs for a week. I know you gotta be careful placing the electrodes across (near) your heart. It is possible to fuck up its timing. Lemme know if you see any results.
