Order of muscle connectors
Place one electrode in the middle of the muscle body, connect this electrode to the RED snap connector. Place a second electrode at one end of the muscle body, connect this electrode to the GREEN snap connector. Place a third electrode on a bony or non-muscular part of your body near the targeted muscle, connect this electrode to the YELLOW snap connector.
