transion (tran•see•on)

20 minutes = 3 hours of concentrated exercise.

Transion is a procedure in which electrical stimuli are introduced into the muscle causing the muscle to contract in rapid succession.

• Muscle and tissue toning
• Helps reduce weight and related beauty problems
• Quick localized body reshaping
• Cellulite session and prevention
• Depletion of fat deposits
• Increase metabolism and supply of oxygen

How it works:

The muscle which is induced by the equipment forces the muscle-skeletal cells to do additional work.

The first effect will be the use of nutrients to support the required energy. The principal substance (nutrients) from which cells extract energy are the foodstuffs such as carbohydrates, fats and proteins that react with oxygen. After metabolization, essentially glucose, fatty acids and amino acids enter the cell. Inside the cell, the foodstuff reacts chemically with the oxygen under the influence of various enzymes that control the rate of reaction and channel the energy that is released into the proper direction, in this case muscles. All these oxidative reactions occur inside of cells and the energy that is released is used to form the high energy compound adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Then the ATP, not the original foodstuffs themselves is used throughout the cells to energize almost all the metabolic reactions.

The principal functions are:

• To degrade fatty acids to small compound 20 that can be used for energy (ATP production).
• To synthesize triglycerides
• To synthesize other lipids from fatty acids, as cholesterol and phospholipids
• During the transion session, trains of faradic waves on the nervous terminations of the muscles, creates an action which spreads along the muscular fiber originating the contraction response. It gives a slight twisting movement to the muscles stimulated.
