Muscle Weakness
What is Muscle Weakness?
The muscular system allows us to move and maintain our posture, but it also is responsible for circulating the blood throughout our bodies. When muscles don’t function as they should, it can impact everyday life. Learn more about how aging affects our leg muscles and how REVITIVE can help strengthen leg muscles.
What are the Symptoms of Muscle Weakness?
Muscle weakness happens when your full effort doesn’t produce a normal muscle contraction or movement. It’s sometimes called reduced muscle strength, muscular weakness, or weak muscles. In plain English, legs feel like “jelly” or “rubber” and even to the point when taking just a few steps can be exhausting or troublesome.
Unfortunately, muscle weakness will happen to all of us at some point in our life. From our 30s onwards, our body composition starts to change - we begin to lose muscle mass, muscle strength and endurance. People who are physically inactive can lose as much as 5% of their muscle mass each decade after age 30. Even people who are active can’t escape the aging process and will experience muscle loss.
How can REVITIVE Help?
REVITIVE Circulation Booster uses patented Electrical Muscle Stimulation applied through the soles of the feet. When used on a strong enough intensity level, it gets all the muscles in the lower legs working, just like vigorous exercise. When used daily for 30 to 60 minutes over a 6 to 8 week period, leg muscle strength and endurance will improve. In addition, circulation is improved as the muscle stimulation draws fresh oxygenated blood back into the legs and feet via the arteries while also returning the old blood containing waste and carbon-dioxide back to the heart via the veins.
