Professional athletes and EMS

For years, world’s leading sports figures have used EMS to improve their athletic performance.

In general, any professional athlete can use electrical muscle stimulation to get more out of training. As we educate our readers, it is vital for preventing injuries, repairing body muscles and increasing muscle development. This way, you can add more demanding and advanced workouts to augment or even ditch completely, depending on your short and long term goals, conventional exercise approach.

The key is to find the perfect balance between aerobic, anaerobic and targeted exercise. Professional athletes, for example, need to focus on a specific muscle group depending on the sport, e.g. legs for soccer players and runners, upper body for specific types of gymnastics, arms and core for wrestlers - you get an idea.

One of the challenges for athletes is to keep up with very demanding training regime and at the same time be prepared to perform at the very high level during the competition time, which is usually dependent on busy tournament schedule. This in turn creates a conundrum - how do you cope with the body fatigue and muscle weakness and recover quickly? The answer is simple - using EMS.

EMS is a perfect technology backed framework that allows athletes to:

  • Quickly recover after back-to-back matches or competitions by infusing EMS quick 20 minutes strength, endurance and muscle relaxation training.

  • Focusing on specific groups of muscles that need to be repaired/toned depending on the specific goal and/or physical condition. That’s right, EMS FDA approved machines that we use are actually highly configurable in delivering electricity to specific muscle groups.

  • Allowing for extra recovery time by reducing exercise to 20-25 mins and therefore improving their mental health, letting them to take their mind off training routine and relax with their families and friends.

For this reason, electrical muscle stimulation is commonly used by variety of professional sport clubs and tournaments around the world in their training camps.
