The Phoenix Waveform Sports
Performance Optimization

By Dr. Jeff Banas, DC – Sports Chiropractor, Triathlon Coach, and Performance Specialist

Introduction: Power Up Your Performance

If you want to perform at your highest level, recover faster, and build strength without
breaking down your body, this guide is for you. The Phoenix Waveform is more than a
device—it’s a system that helps you tap into the hidden power of your nervous system.
Whether you're a runner, swimmer, triathlete, or golfer, your performance starts in your
brain, not just your muscles.

This report breaks down how to use the Phoenix Waveform to activate, strengthen, and
recover the key muscles that drive your sport. We’ll cover real-world methods, athlete-
tested insights, and neuroscience-backed strategies from experts like Ben Greenβield and
Andrew Huberman. Let’s upgrade how you train, recover, and move—starting with your
nervous system.

1. The Secret Weapon: Your Nervous System

Every move you make starts with a signal from your brain. The faster and cleaner that
signal, the more powerful and efβicient your movement. That’s why elite athletes don’t just
train muscles—they train their nervous system.

The Phoenix Waveform uses dire

ct current stimulation to improve communication between
your brain and muscles. This helps you activate dormant muscle βibers, improve
coordination, and increase strength—without adding extra stress on your joints.

💡 Phoenix Insight: Think of your nervous system like Wi-Fi for your body—the stronger
the signal, the better every muscle performs.

2. Customize Your Training: Ask ChatGPT
Want to get the most from your Phoenix sessions? Start by identifying the muscles that
matter most for your sport. Here’s an easy hack to make your training more speciβic and
effective:

💬 Ask ChatGPT: “What are the major muscles used in my sport?”

ChatGPT will instantly give you a list of key muscles involved in your sport—whether you’re
running, swimming, cycling, or swinging a golf club. Once you have that list, use the Phoenix
Waveform to target each muscle group with activation, mobility, and strength sessions. This
creates a customized approach that helps you move better, recover faster, and perform
stronger.

⚡ Coach’s Corner: Train smarter, not harder. The Phoenix helps you zero in on the muscles
that drive your results.

3. Sport-Specific Power Zones

Here’s how top athletes in different sports use the Phoenix Waveform to improve their
performance and prevent injury:

**Runners** – Focus on glutes, hamstrings, calves, and core. Activating these muscles
improves stride power, balance, and running economy.

💪 Neural Performance Hack: Use the Phoenix for glute activation before runs to βire up
your posterior chain and reduce knee strain.

**Swimmers** – Target shoulders, lats, and core. Activation improves stroke strength and
shoulder stability.

💡 Phoenix Insight: Pair shoulder activation with mobility work to prevent impingement
and improve endurance in the pool.

**Triathletes** – Combine muscle activation for cycling (quads, glutes) and running
(hamstrings, calves). Recovery protocols between events improve longevity.

🧠 Pro Tip: Post-race, use the Phoenix on 10–20 Hz for deep recovery and inβlammation
control.

**Golfers** – Focus on core, obliques, and hips for rotational strength. Improved neural
activation leads to smoother swings and more power off the tee.

🎯 Coach’s Corner: Use the Phoenix to balance both sides of your body—rotation power
starts with symmetry.

4. Integrating Phoenix into Training & Recovery

The Phoenix Waveform isn’t a replacement for training—it’s a force multiplier. By
combining neural activation with your current workouts, you’ll experience faster warm-ups,
stronger lifts, and quicker recovery.

💡 Phoenix Insight: Use the Phoenix before training for activation, during for performance
enhancement, and after for recovery.

Before Training – Run Phoenix on high frequency (500 Hz) for 5–10 minutes to activate key
muscle groups.

🔥 During Training – Use moderate to high frequency (300-500 Hz) for muscle re-
education or strength sessions.

🧘 After Training – Low frequency (10–20 Hz) for recovery and parasympathetic
activation.

5. The Recovery Advantage

Andrew Huberman emphasizes that elite recovery isn’t just about rest—it’s about
intentional recovery. The Phoenix Waveform helps you recover faster by enhancing blood
βlow, clearing metabolic waste, and improving nervous system balance.
Ben Greenβield also highlights how combining cold exposure, breathwork, and
neuromuscular stimulation boosts mitochondrial health and performance.

Neural Performance Hack: Pair Phoenix recovery sessions with cold plunges or deep
breathing to accelerate your body’s reset process.

6. Fuel, Sleep, and Perform

Great training means nothing without recovery fuel and sleep. Optimize both to support
your nervous system and amplify results.

🥦 Nutrition: Eat anti-inβlammatory foods—wild-caught βish, avocados, leafy greens, and
turmeric.

💊 Supplements: Magnesium, Omega-3s, and electrolytes support muscle signaling and
recovery.

🌙 Sleep: 7–9 hours with a dark, cool room. Avoid screens 1 hour before bed.

🧠 Huberman Insight: Morning sunlight + consistent sleep schedules enhance circadian
rhythm and muscle recovery.

7. The 7-Day Phoenix Performance Reset Plan

This one-week plan helps you integrate Phoenix sessions with movement, mindset, and
recovery for optimal results.

Day 1 – Phoenix activation + dynamic warm-up
Day 2 – Mobility + strength work
Day 3 – Phoenix recovery session + breathwork
Day 4 – Activation + sport-speciβic drills
Day 5 – Full recovery (light Phoenix + cold exposure)
Day 6 – Neural training + core activation
Day 7 – Rest, reβlection, and planning next week

📈 Track performance metrics: speed, HRV, sleep, and recovery levels to measure your
neural efβiciency gains.

Final Thoughts

The Phoenix Waveform gives you the tools to unlock your full potential. Train your nervous
system, not just your muscles. By applying the methods in this report, you’ll move better,
recover faster, and perform stronger—both in training and life.
