What is EMS?
EMS also known as Electro myo Stimulation training, its the new innovative way to ensure you get real results from your workouts.
It's been proven that by sending electrical impulses via your muscles you can accelerate your progress by ensuring more muscles are engaged throughout each 20 minute workout.
Facts about EMS Training
Here's a simple breakdown of what all the buzz is about and why EMS is a more effective way of training to ensure you stay on track to achieving real results.
Electronic Muscle Stimulation is proven to be safe
EMS Training actually dates back to the early 19th century, where scientists discovered that electrical current can support muscle movement. More recently back in 1960 eastern European companies began using EMS training to support elite athletes, early studies demonstrated that it could increase an athletes strength by up to 30%. Advances in technology have enabled EMS training to become an affordable and safe way of training, current control and a greater understanding of how electrical impulses work through our bodies has ensured that the regular use of this kind of training can support a healthy lifestyle. In fact in America it is used as prescribed treatment for certain health conditions such as muscle re-education, relaxation of muscle spasms and increasing of blood circulation.
EMS is suitable for all ages & abilities
One of the advantages of EMS over your traditional gym or exercise classes is that is really is suitable for everyone. The use of electrical impulses to control the intensity of the workout means that no other specialists equipment is required and all exercises can be performed using your own body weight, which results in no extra pressure on your joints or weaker body parts. However, if you do want to spice it up a little all you have to do is ask, and we can add in extra weights and a range of other fun equipment.
EMS accelerates results
Probably one of the most impressive aspects of EMS training is that it really does supercharge your results and all it takes is just one 20 minute workout a week. Your average exercise in the gym will usually use about 35% of your body's muscle fibre, bring EMS into the equation and you'll soon be utilising up to 90% of your muscles in just one exercise. Therefore using muscles that you probably didn't even know you had.
