Heey BT. Love your videos! I'm about to buy my first ems/tens (for all the applications it has). ..Re the wireless compex 6.0 and 8.0 and the US version... (I'm in Australia) do you still prefer wired devices? I'm still stumped on whether the wired or wireless is better. Wouldn't mind being able to clean the house while wearing them.. but also.. the light weightedness(?) of the wired electrodes might be better for that, despite the wires being attached?? does that make sense? What do ya reckon?
@@BrandonTalbot cheers :) I reckon that's the answer I wanted. They are significantly cheaper too for essentially the same device. (The 4.0 is the same as the 6.0... just with wires)
I am thinking of upgrading from my Compex Performance. I use it strictly to build quad muscles-particularly the VMO-as I’ve been dealing with patella-femoral pain for two decades and this is the only thing that works for me. Compex support recommended either the 3.0 version of the Performance or the Sport Elite. I find the wires a pain to deal with, so am intrigued by the Wireless 2.0, but it’s pretty pricey. What are your thoughts on the Wireless Mini?
No. The exercises my PT has me use with it are squats (sit-to-stand), leg extensions, and quad sets. She thinks I don’t need wireless for that reason. I wrote to Compex support and asked about the mini for my situation and they wrote back that they DON”T recommend the mini, but with no explanation. I also looked into the Power Dot, but you’re not the only one who talked about the connectivity issue, so I think I’ll pass. Right now I’m looking at upgrading to the Performance 3.0. I only use one setting, which is the Endurance, so don’t need all the bells and whistles.
@@BrandonTalbot Thanks for your replies, and for your RUclips reviews. They’re excellent and have been very helpful to me...and from the comments I’ve read, to many others as well. I wouldn’t be upgrading if my current Compex was working properly. Even though fully charged, I get about 10 minutes of use before it starts shutting off (and it’s not the pads). Compex’s trouble shooting info says it’s the battery, so I bought a replacement battery and the same thing happens. My PT’s Compex does the same thing, so they have to keep it plugged in whenever it’s not in use and they’re able to use it. I really didn’t want to do that, and with the current “sale” price (is it always on sale?) and a coupon code I found, I was able to order the Performance 3.0 for $157. I figured that given the amount of use it’s going to be getting as I get older (I’m 75) and the quad muscles harder to keep strong, it’s worth the investment.
@@JayAshman Hey Jay, thank you so much for your kind words and I'm glad it helped. Yeah if it's malfunctioning like that then the upgrade is worth it especially since you don't need the fancy one. Generally around that price yes.
Hi Brandon: Which EMS or NMES would you rank highest, for an athlete rebuilding after paralysis? I am years past my injury, but my pt only worked with me toward basic mobility, which is not to be discounted; however, my body aches to come all the way back. I can feel the areas of atrophy, and need help targeting those, for more progress. I've always been serious about my workouts, but I've also never been one, who will overdo them. I have always listened to my body, (I'm over 30 years vegan, as a result), and I understand that progress will take time. But, I also that ignoring, or, not addressing our known areas of weakness, at best, only sustain us where we are, and at worse, create vulnerabilities to injuries. I want you to know that I appreciate your channel, and would not ask for guidance frivolously. Whatever unit I get will never be a paperweight. Thanks. Robin
ok, question: now what would you say about the new compex 3.0 vs. the powerdot? (Update of your earlier video considering the new version). Thank you by the way! Been waiting for this ever since I saw the new Compex...
I think you should mention that power dot really only works with iOS. Android users have a connectivity nightmare. Also do you have a link to the compex device as I couldn't find it anywhere on their site? Could it be because I am based in Germany? Finally, why don't you compare the Globus and Marco pro ems devices? They are on a par with compex.
You are possibly the only objective person on all of yt who has reviewed these devices. It almost sounds conspiratorial, but it's like everyone is a paid shill these days. I was looking for information for a certain green device, and it was like scrolling through endless infomercials. Thank you.
I hope to get an answer, here goes… I notice that when I’m wired up, moving into my program, I start increasing my intensity, then the connection errors starts. In order to increase I have to move to one-by-one. What’s happening here?
To clarify when you increase intensity during a program you’re hit with an error? What make and model? Have you double check to make sure all of the connections between, pads, chords and chords to unit are secure?
@@BrandonTalbot I have a Spot Elite 2.0. The wires seem to be secure. I ordered a new set of wires to see if that was the problem. Also I installed a new battery.
OK Brandon...so I've scanned all your latest videos. You've worn the Amazon Halo until recently, the OURA ring as well (a couple of weeks ago still) as well as the Whoop. You've been vocal about the subscription service of the Whoop, but it seems you have finally settled on the Whoop and the Apple Watch. Is that your fitness accessory preference?
I kind of bounce through them. Wearing 4 wearables at once is ...stupid let’s be honest. The Whoop is my go to. The oura is on because the battery lasts so long I forgot about it being there. The Apple Watch I like, but the battery only lasts 36 hours. The sense lasted a week but I HATED IT. so Whoop is the one I can’t live without until something beats it
I have a wireless 2.0. It has bugged me how much the weight of the attachments makes the pads fall off. Would you recommend upgrading from the wireless 2.0 to the new 3.0?
Have you tested the marc pro plus? Im stuck between getting the marc and the compex for pain relief and helping my muscle atrophy so I can get moving again. I'm disabled with advanced RA.
Thanks for watching! I have not used the Mark Pro plus I’ve used previous models but not this one. But concerning previous models I enjoyed Compex more
Also to add that the body of the Complex 2.0 has a tacky surface for grip. That tacky surface turns to gooey mess after a few years, like the residue left behind from a decal.
If I’m my country I have the PowerDot cheaper than Compex, what is the better to buy and I have another question, does Compex have a customized programs so I can control every thing or it’s just sat up programs?
I prefer Compex, it’s way more reliable and still at this point a little more functional. The powerdot will give you the customization, the Compex won’t. But you’re most likely to use the same programs 80-90% of the time
In the 3.0 series is there any more advantage to buying the performance or the elite over the edge other than the more programs? I have heard you shouldn’t use the edge more than once a week
The performance, elite and edge are model names, each come with their own set of features the sport elite having the most and the edge having the least. It has nothing to do with how many times a week you should use them. There have been periods where I used it multiple times a day every day for months.
Just beginning to learn about these products. Power dot claims they can stimulate both nerves and muscles, but complex only does muscles. Do you have an opinion on this claim? Is it relevant?
TLDR: How much improvement can I expect from using this vs just doing sit ups, pushups, planks, etc. on their own? From the perspective of someone who has never seriously exercised before, and has basically no muscle strength Long form: Hi, so I'm completely new to, well, exercising in general. I can't remember the last time I did a dedicated workout, lol. I started on antidepressants last year, and have lost 10 lbs from them killing my appetite, and I'm worried about losing muscle mass along with fat. My BMI is around 21, so I don't actually need to lose weight. My goal here is to build a bit of muscle for health, and also a bit of a confidence boost. With my depression, I would never be able to regularly go to a gym, which is why I looked up ways to train your strength without gym equipment, and learned about NEMS. Anyways, my question is, what can I expect to get out of this, vs. just doing exercises like situps, pushups, etc. on their own? And would you say it's worth it for someone like me? Thank you for any advice!
Unfortunately an impossible question to answer, as there are variable upon variable that would determine result, what is undeniable is it’s efficacy. If you use it consistently 2-3x per week you’d see results at a greater degree then if you didn’t use it.
Well with these devices is manually control the intensity, so you can make it as intense as you want, that being said, intensity isn’t a metric of importance for these devices
I always felt that on the 2.0 the body part zones really didn't offer any benefits as there were no way of tracking your workouts and progress. I'm curious to learn if the 3.0 has this feature so you could use it on an app. Also I do like the 3.0 counts down your reps.
How to pick the right compex model ? My goal is for muscle gain, is SP 2.0 good enough ? According to the compex info they mention need pick the more pricy like 4.0 or 8.0 for muscle gain, but they are so expensive! Given it’s all using the same principle, are they really different or just being fancy ?!
I’m not familiar with the SP line as it’s not the one we get in the states but you just need one that works the muscle the same way you would with any sort of resistance for hypertrophy. Long, slow, 60-80% effort. So any Compex that offers strength endurance and strength.
@@BrandonTalbot thanks for your quick reply, the SP means sports elite, and there are options like 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0 where they claim to have more programs and features, but the price tends to go up tremendously with more features. But it seems like the hardware is the same and the principle is the same. I am confused with which model to pick with the goal of muscle gain.
I have a weak/tight spot in the lower fibula area for 8+ months and it's been preventing me from moving freely. Will this device help w that? Thank you
@@BrandonTalbot Sorry, last question. I have a, "Omron" Tens Unit. Would you say the Compex 3.0 is a much higher quality product or relatively similar? Thank you!
One major gripe I have with Compex are their proprietary pads, they are crazy expensive for the amount you get when you need some new ones. After taking good care of the ones that came with the unit, I got about 5x the use out of what they said each pad are good for, now my unit is just paper weight because I refuse to pay their ridiculous price for new pads.
Hey Christian, I appreciate the feedback but there isn’t enough difference between them to make it. They’re exactly the same except the screen and the battery type.
the european compex models have the same UI/UX as the 3.0 and as far as i can tell, it has been available since 2018/2019 whilst you were griping about the 2.0. maybe you can do a comparison of the us compex wireless/wired models v the european ones? (i have the compex 8.0)
@@BrandonTalbot my mistake you did the recoverfun review ! you should contact Achedaway and try their massage gun I just bought it and it is great, it is very powerful and quiet. they send their massage gun to the youtubers who contact them 😉
Great question - but these are two completely different products. The nice thing about the Compex is how much it can help you from a training aspect and not just recovery
You are wrong about the battery same reason you don't have a lithium battery in your car . ni/mh is better for this application. lithium can not take large power draw. for this reason ni/mh is better for this application. lithium is better for same constant power draw. ni/mh is not out of date deep cycle batteries have some of the newest tech. just because it's new does not make it better application matters most.
@@BrandonTalbot thanks so much for your response Brandon, I am totally new on this devices and I found your video very helpful, now I know I am getting then SPORT ELITE 3.0, but which site you refer to?, thanks in advance.
friendly piece of advice, don't heart every comment because it turns the comment section into one giant inbox rather than a viewer fuelled discussion love your stuff btw, keep it up
Although stated in the beginning this is wired and powerdot is wireless it doesn't show them in use. I am a guy who owns powerdot and I do not like how long it takes to crank up.. So I'm considering compex, but seeing another's video of 3.0 in use, the wires are such a hassle- I can tell by looking. I suffer from pinched nerves and trigger point.. I need this stuff and strong too... I see you say compex>powerdot. But they are different in how to actually get it going and how can be used. I'm in pain constantly, so I suppose wireless is what I need to get by. I can wear the powerdot while just being more, due to less wires. Don't like the app and how long to crank it up is..
They’re not different - I’ve used both for a long time. Yes powerdot offers more features but the science behind the way it works is the same. Wired or wireless is just a preference it will not effect outcome. For me you’d chose wired if you wanted to train with it, that’s really its only advantage.
Thanks bro, I had my patellar tendon rupture. I think this will benefit me. Just purchased thanks to your reviews including vs powerdot
I just bought one thanks to your reviews. It arrives tomorrow, very excited!
Hope you love it Dan!

friendly piece of advice, don't heart every comment because it turns the comment section into one giant inbox rather than a viewer fuelled discussion
love your stuff btw, keep it up
I’ll do my best👌🏽🙏🏽
Although stated in the beginning this is wired and powerdot is wireless it doesn't show them in use. I am a guy who owns powerdot and I do not like how long it takes to crank up.. So I'm considering compex, but seeing another's video of 3.0 in use, the wires are such a hassle- I can tell by looking.
I suffer from pinched nerves and trigger point.. I need this stuff and strong too...
I see you say compex>powerdot. But they are different in how to actually get it going and how can be used. I'm in pain constantly, so I suppose wireless is what I need to get by. I can wear the powerdot while just being more, due to less wires. Don't like the app and how long to crank it up is..
They’re not different - I’ve used both for a long time. Yes powerdot offers more features but the science behind the way it works is the same. Wired or wireless is just a preference it will not effect outcome. For me you’d chose wired if you wanted to train with it, that’s really its only advantage.
