What is Accapi Nexus and what is special about it?
Accapi Nexus is a complete line of underwear, clothing and accessories made from the exclusive Nexus Energy Source fabric for sport, leisure and relaxation. The Accapi Nexus products improve the blood circulation, especially the peripheral microcirculation, boost muscular oxygenation, balance the thermoregulation of the body, help faster elimination of lactic acid and the concentration of muscular power, consequently improving your performance in training, during competitions and in the recovery phase.
Why does Accapi Nexus produce these effects?
Because Accapi Nexus products are made from the exclusive Nexus Energy Source fabric, created in Japan and protected by a worldwide patent. Its structure guarantees the natural and constant emission of an infrared ray with controlled frequency that can interact positively on human body, improving its metabolism and its
well-being.
How do the Accapi Nexus products in Nexus fibre improve the blood circulation?
The natural and constant infrared emission by the Nexus fibre, the exclusive component of the Accapi Nexusproducts, helps to improve the blood circulation. As scientific tests show, when the blood is restored to its optimum fluidity, there is a clear improvement in the general circulation and especially in the peripheral one, in the limbs and in the capillary veins of the hands and feet. The Nexus fibre optimizes the natural fluidity of the blood.
Have specific studies been made on the capacity of Accapi Nexus products to regulate the body temperature?
Yes. Tests carried out on athletes in different disciplines with the help of very modern thermographic equipment, have recorded “important and significant signals of regulation and maintenance of the body temperature, coming from the Nexus fabric.” These results have led to the evaluation of subjects with major circulatory anomalies as well. thanks to special tele-thermographic studies, In these cases, it has been seen that “the use of the Nexus fibre alone, compared with similar or placebo garments, has resulted in a clear improvement in the pathological condition
and an immediate relaxation of the constricted fibres.”
What effects can Accapi Nexus articles have on performances?
It is often believed that the relationship between the technical instrument adopted and the sports performance takes place only during the race, in a fairly limited period of time. With the Accapi Nexus products, your horizons open up. Your performance depends on many factors: how you have recovered from the last race and training, how you have slept the night before, the state of well-being and fitness created before the sporting event. The Accapi Nuxus articles rebalance your blood circulation day by day, optimize the oxygenation of muscles and all the body tissues, create balanced thermoregulation in your organism on the days and hours before the sporting performance.
And in competitions?
In competition, the Accapi Nexus articles allow you greater muscular intensity and faster elimination of the lactic
acid produced by your body, contributing to a longer lasting performance or less fatigue. In addition, accessories made from Nexus fabric, like the Photonizer bottle cover, allow more effective hydration and faster absorption by the organism of both water and any supplements it may contain.
Are Accapi Nexus articles also useful when preparing for a competition?
Exactly, and something more as well. The Accapi Nexus articles are the first and only ones in the world to have a genuine activity of sporting Personal Trainer: before the race, during the race and after the race. And this is naturally true for training as well, which thanks to Accapi Nexus articles, can be more frequentand effective, thanks to the better capacity for recovery.
Do the Accapi Nexus articles have a particular action on sweat?
Nexus fabric significantly cuts down the time taken for the evaporation of sweat – and this has been proven by laboratory tests - which reduces the unpleasant sensation of “cold” and “wetness”typical of clothes that are not dry. It has also been noted that Nexus fabric has an outstanding and natural anti-bacterial action, without any specific substance being added to the fabric, unlike other fibres on the market which, in order to be able to boast of an anti-bacterial action, have to include bactericide substances in their composition which inevitably then come into contact with the skin.
Do Accapi Nexus articles of clothing have a particular mechanical action on the body?
No. There are articles on the market that promise to improve the circulation of the blood with phenomena of local compression of muscles and tissue. The Accapi Nexus articles do not have any action of this kind. The improvement in the circulation does not take place through mechanical and forced compression of the tissues, but thanks to a rebalancing of the natural fluidity of the blood, which thus flows better and without any pressure through the blood vessels. This is why Accapi Nexus articles are soft, very pleasant to wear and can be worn day and night without any uncomfortable sensation of constriction or “binding”.
Are there any limits or contraindications for the use of the Accapi Nexus articles or products?
Absolutely none. Precisely because they are articles which do not have any mechanical or constrictive action on the body (and in particular they exclude any form of compression of the tissues)there is no restriction whatsoever on their use. The Accapi Nexus articles of clothing can be worn at any time of the day, both in the active phases and whilst recovering, during the day and at night.
How do Accapi Nexus products act in the case of microtraumas or states of inflammation?
The studies carried out with thermographic equipment of the latest generation show that the improvement in the blood circulation and in the vascularization of the tissues caused by Nexus fibre is particularly beneficial on people who have suffered a microtrauma or suffer from a state of inflammation, “by accelerating recovery and the return to a state of equilibrium”. Research has been carried out using articles made from other fabrics, with the subjects concerned not knowing which they were wearing, in order to avoid any form of psychological influence.
Is a general evaluation possible on the effects of the Accapi Nexus products?
The conclusions of the studies carried out show that “in consideration of the improvement in circulation and in consideration of the study on the parameters of lactate and on the haematic composition evaluated, the Nexus fibre is believed to cause a consequent improvement in the blood circulation as a whole and therefore also an improvement of the oxygenation of tissues, with a consequent beneficial effect on endogenous thermoregulation.” In simpler terms, this means that a general benefit has been found on the oxygenation of tissues, on the elimination of lactic acid, on prevention and recovery in the case of microtraumas and thermal regulation of the body, thanks to the improvement produced by the Accapi articles in Nexus fabric on the circulation.
Which sports and athletes have adopted Accapi Nexus articles?
Accapi Nexus is suitable for all types of sport. The list of athletes who normally use the Accapi Gain Energy articles
is very long. You can find their names, their impressions and also many video interviews on the site www.accapi.com. There are also many sports doctors and very high level trainers who have adopted Accapi Gain Energy products for their teams and also for their personal use. Dr. Gabriele Rosa’s Rosa Nike Team, for example, has given its 200 athletes, who include some of the best marathon runners in the world and protagonists of the
last Olympics in Beijing, Accapi Nexus products. The same goes for the Foppa Pedretti women’s Volleyball team, for the Liquigas and LPR cycling teams and for many other teams.
Are there any specific and independent studies that confirm the properties of the Accapi Nexus products?
Certainly. Universities in Italy (in particular Ferrara and Pisa) and abroad have carried out in-depth studies and laboratory experiments, adopting ministerial scientific protocols confirming the special qualities of the Accapi Gain Energy products, such as the constant and controlled emission of infrared rays, the effects on water and organic fluids such as the blood, and the naturalness and absolute harmlessness of these phenomena.
Can the Accapi Nexus articles have preventive effects on traumas during sport?
The Accapi Nexus articles have a preventive action by protecting the muscular structure; muscles at an optimal temperature and with a perfect blood flow including of the microcirculation that are correctly; muscles oxygenated and less “loaded” by an excessive production of lactic acid, tend to be less at risk of minor injuries and, if they occur, they have a better capacity of recovery. This opinion is confirmed, for the Accapi Nexus articles, by trainers and coaches working at very high levels in very challenging sports from this point of view, such as rugby and marathons.
Are there specific Accapi Nexus products in the sector of prevention of treatment of minor injuries?
The BodyGuard line by Accapi Nexus, deals effectively with minor injuries or states of inflammation. These articles (knee guards, ankle bands, elbow pads and so on) recognised as medical aids by the Ministry of Health, also have an effective preventive action and are adopted with excellent results both in sport and in everyday life.
Are Accapi Nexus products recommended only for sport?
Due to their exceptional characteristics, the Accapi Nexus products are adopted in sport and also by Associations which, like the Val d’Aosta Mountain Rescue, operate in truly difficult conditions.But the unique aspect of these articles is that they can be used with benefit by everybody, at any age. The underwear, and in particular the recovery pyjama, offer a sense of well-being and a rapid return to “feeling fit” even during the hours of sleep
or during normal everyday activities. The BodyGuard line allows, at every age, preventing or fighting states of inflammation at the joints, the cervical and lumbar areas. with the advantages that are easy to understand. The Photonizer bottle cover is normally used, in its “large” version” on bottles of mineral water during meals.
How long does the action of the Accapi Nexus products last?
The natural infrared emission of Nexus fibre, characteristic of the Accapi Nexus products, never ceases and is not reduced with the passing of time, nor with use of the articles, not after washing. The articles have the normal duration of any high quality clothing item. To guarantee they last as long as possible, we recommend washing them by hand in warm water at 30°C and, if machinewashed, to avoid spinning.
