COMPANY

Desmotec is an Italian company leader in isoinertial technology for physical conditioning, rehabilitation and physiotherapy. Desmotec is a combination of culture, technology and proprietary software, creating a unique training system, the DTS (Desmotec Training System). The DTS was born by the collaboration among different experts, from world renown athletic trainers to PRO athletes and physiotherapists. This continual R&D has allowed to develop an innovative training system, this system allows the creation of a personalized, progressive and controlled rehab or training path thanks to real-time feedback of sessions.

MISSION Today, the competitive sports training and athletic training are not only a set of individual physical sensations, but a method to optimize the athletic movement, thanks to the experience of competent trainers, training methods and to the use of targeted technologies. From this concept, Desmotec has proposed to develop a method, born for the professional athlete, but also open to high-level amateurs, allowing themselves to manage a fully monitored, personalized and modular training path. This method consists in usage of equipment that exploits the inertia generated by the athlete and a real time biofeedback software that (via an encoder) record the training session, allowing the load control to which the athlete undergoes. Through this technology the muscle fibers involved in injuries are activated, allowing their strengthening and resulting in prevention and faster recovery if the athlete has already suffered the injury.

CULTURE The passion for the human well-being as a lifestyle and the interest to develop a new method of training, moved different experts to collaborate and create a board in order to collect, share and improve the knowledge regarding the isoinertial method. This vision integrated with the scientific approach gave naturally life to the Desmotec Academy.

TECHNOLOGY The continual R&D and field testing allow Desmotec to offer innovative and state-of-the-art solutions whose goal is the human well- being. The collaboration among engineers, international designers, and qualified experts, give life to products which are the quintessence of the Made in Italy excellence. Desmotec provides training technologies which address intramuscular and intermuscular coordination, promoting correct motor execution in both the concentric and eccentric movements of an exercise. Field studies on elite athletes reveal the positive impacts of the isoinertial training method on performance, rehabilitation, and injury-prevention.

DESMOTEC TRAINING

Long-duration space travel in the late ‘80s brought up new concerns of preserving muscular efficiency and curbing hypotrophy. From this concept there was a further development which led to employ the isoinertial methodology in sport, rehabilitation and physiotherapy. In elite performance training, as well as recreational sport activities, special attention is given towards eccentric strength training. This provides: ● the ability to generate greater forces, compared to traditional training methods (up to 40%-50% increase). ● extensor muscle chain performance enhancements. ● lower cardiopulmonary efforts. ● a unique neuromuscular activation requiring lower CNS fatigue. ● stimulation of specific micro adaptations capable of rebuilding damaged muscle tissue. Eccentric contraction is relevant in sports medicine and is vastly employed by physiotherapists and athletic trainers who cooperate with Desmotec in: ● physical conditioning ● injury prevention ● injury rehabilitation ● physiotherapy

SPORT AND ATHLETIC TRAINING Desmotec proposes new generation machines that use eccentric training and promote pro and amateur athletic performance, giving the opportunity for coaches and trainers to work reaching the higher muscular potential of each athlete. The gesture performed with the isoinertial machine requires the athlete to anticipate the neuromuscular response at the end of the concentric phase resulting in greater physical effort from the energy point of view.

PHYSIOTHERAPY AND REHABILITATION During the eccentric workout, a smaller number of motor units are involved, with higher stress of muscle fibers compared to the concentric contractions, creating micro specific adaptations within the muscle tissue, able to regenerate it and provide a injury prevention. Therefore, in this context, the eccentric muscle re-education is particularly suitable in the specific functional rehabilitation of muscle mechanical after trauma in order to gradually readapt the structure to high loads, without losing elasticity at the expense of strength and vice versa.
