Stage 1 (10 min) | Stage 2 (10 min) | Stage 3 (10 min) | Stage 1 (10 min) | Stage 2 (10 min) | Stage 3 (10 min) | ||
Week 1 | 1 Nm | 1.5 Nm | 2.0 | 1 Nm | 1.5 | 2.0 | If completing the 2 visits without the motor turned on, paradigm will change in week 2 |
Week 2 | 1.5 Nm | 2.0 | 2.5 | 1.5 Nm | 2.0 | 2.5 | If the motor tuned on, the same paradigm will be maintained in week 3 |
Week 3 | 1.5 Nm | 2.0 | 2.5 | 1.5 Nm | 2.0 | 2.5 | If completing the 2 visits without the motor turned on, paradigm will change in week 4 |
Week 4 | 2 Nm | 2.5 | 3.0 | 2 Nm | 2.5 | 3.0 | And so on till week 12 |
