After a TMG100 assesment of the Al Hilal FC players in summer during their preparations in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Austria our team went on to extend the testing and add Speed development assessment carried out in Riad.

Our new customer, the Faculty of Medicine University of Maribor, Slovenia, will implement the TMG 100 System in their research work in the field of orthopedics and rehabilitation. Research results will add value to the use of the system in the field of medicine.

Our CEO Jure Jemec has just returned from Russia where he, besides other endeavors provided training for our distributor Eaglesports and their partners. During his visit he also made a presentation at prestigious Russian State University of Physical Education, Sport, Youth and Tourism (SCOLIPE), which is the largest higher educational establishment in the sphere of physical education in Russia.

Although the weather with snow delayed one of the activities, we had another successful week of visits and customer training in the US. Demonstrations took place at Athletes Performance, Cary NC and Northeastern University, Boston MA, and the training was made for our next user in the US, Mr. Art Horne

TMG100 tensiomyography is indicated and frequently used in elite sports and rehabilitation training to determine the specific effects of different training methodologies on individual muscle contraction properties. A recent study in junior soccer players confirms the relevance and rational for using TMG100 tensiomyography in every training practice. One group of subjects followed an isometric-concentric protocol for the rectus femoris, the other a concentric protocol. Study results suggested that the isometric-concentric program group increased its recruitment of fast, fibre type II motor units, while in the concentric protocol group there is a tendency towards slower motor unit recruitment. The TMG100 findings are supported by the results of soccer specific field tests in which the isometric-concentric group scored better overall after completing the training protocol. This study supports that TMG100 tensiomyography is a very important tool in training and rehab monitoring to determine the exact effects various training strategies have on muscle function. By conducting regular TMG100 tensiomyography check-ups, training strategies can be adjusted and fine-tuned based on objective and relevant information. You can access to the complete article here.

Individual adaptation of knee stabilizers requires selective monitoring in ACL rehabilitation

Important and often overlooked aspects of ACL injuries and surgery are the effects on contraction properties and function in individual muscles that stabilize the injured knee joint. TMG100 tensiomyography research shows that the effects of ACL injury and ensuing surgery affect the knee the individual muscle heads of the knee extensors and flexors differently. It is crucial to the effectiveness, efficiency and speed of the rehabilitation process that the adaptation patterns in each part of the quadriceps and hamstrings are closely followed and understood. In this way rehabilitation can be adapted to individual changes in muscle contraction properties and function to ensure better knee stability and faster return to normal activities within strictly defined safety limits that maintain the integrity of the recovering ACL. Selective TMG100 tensiomyography monitoring after ACL surgery of function and structural atrophy in affected muscles, as well as the functional ratios between knee flexors and extensors will significantly improve the rehabilitation process.

Take a look at the interview with Scott Umberger, the owner of Umberger Performance in Pittsburgh. The last question is about TMG.

During our upcoming trip to the USA, we will organize workshops on Tensiomyography, an innovative muscle diagnostics used by international experts. The workshops will take place on December 10th at Athletes Performance Cary NC and on December 13th at Northeastern University, Boston MA. Send us an e-mail to reserve a place for you and your colleagues and receive complete event details.

We have returned from the Medica trade fair (Düsseldorf, Germany), the largest medical trade fair in the world where we have presented new developments in the field of MC method as well as our products based on the Tensiomyography. The trad fair was very successful as we have managed to attract large number of new research and distribution partners.

Our Chinese distributors Beijing Lead Sports Equipment have been present on Beijing Sports Science Congress where they have presented TMG 100 System to the sport professionals and scientists.
