• I had heard that a lot of the 2008 US Olympians had been using the the Compex Muscle Stimulator and as a triathlete I thought I'd get one and see what improvements I'd see in my training. I've been using it religiously for the last 4 months and this device is amazing. I've reduced all my times and find myself able to train harder the next day. The active recovery clears out the lactic acid and prevents soreness. I recently read that Jason Lezak used as he coached himself (amazing) to gold in China. He apparantly relied on this device and found it more effective that his regular cool downs. The way he swam on that final leg of the 4 x 100 it pretty apparant he worked for him. These are widely available in Europe as it's part their normal practice over there and Compex is starting to break into the US Market. There www.compex.us site links to http://www.betterbraces.com/ViewProducts/CompexSportMuscleStimulator/1023.aspx when you can now buy direct. It's pricey but if you want to shave minutes off your times and feel better along the way pick one up. In reply to: "Electrocute yourself for a better you"
