EMS POWER BODY WORKOUT
Transforming Traditional Workout Approach
HOW EMS TRAINING WORKS:
Human body cells are designed to conduct electrical signals. Electric current is required for the nervous system to send signals throughout the body and to the brain, making it possible for us to move, think and feel. EMS utilizes low and mid frequency electric currents to significantly increase the body’s natural muscle contractions. As a result more muscle fibers are activated when compared to conventional training methods. Moreover, EMS activates fast-twitch muscle fibers that are responsible for muscle growth immediately after electric signal reaches the muscle. During traditional weight lifting exercise the similar effect occurs only at the end of the repetition set, hence taking much more time and effort.
Sounds familiar? Of course, as this is exactly the description of what happens to your body when you go to gym and lift weights. In this case it is the brain that send electrical signals to motor nerves. However, our muscles cannot differentiate between the signal coming from the brain or the EMS device. The very important difference is that during EMS session, electric impulses activate over 98% of your major muscles simultaneously to engage all muscle groups and significantly more muscle fibres. One 20 minutes session provides benefits of 2.5 hours of intense strength and agility training and 2 hours of high-intensity training (HIT).
Electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) sends electrical impulses to motor nerves to promote muscle contraction, which creates muscles stress and micro fiber tears. Naturally, after exercise your body repairs or replaces damaged muscle fibers through a cellular process where it fuses muscle fibers together to form new muscle protein strands or myofibrils. These repaired myofibrils increase in thickness and number to create muscle hypertrophy, in simple English growth. After a while you start seeing your body to transform and muscles look beautifully shaped up.
Traditional workout approach is proven to increase physical strength, stimulate muscle growth, increase metabolism and promote weight loss, improve core strength and reduce back pain. In many cases hiring personal trainer makes a big difference in order to avoid frustration of not achieving targeted goals in desired period of time. However, the process usually involves long hours spent in gym and significant cost to retain a fitness trainer for several months. My EMS Health delivers the same results with only two 20 minute EMS training sessions per week that are equal to 5 hours of a traditional workout in gym.
BENEFITS OF EMS TRAINING
-
Strengthens and tones muscles
EMS training helps to get your muscles strengthened, improves muscle performance, increases muscle growth. Electrical impulses increase local blood circulation and relax muscles to reduce muscle soreness and fatigue after training.
-
EMS training helps losing fat
EMS promotes weight loss by building muscles, which helps to boost metabolism and burn fat. Weight loss with EMS training is most effective when combined with a healthy and balanced nutrition.
-
EMS training Improves cardiovascular strength
Prolonged electrical muscle stimulation exercise improves strength and aerobic capacity in healthy sedentary adults by reducing blood pressure and decreasing formation of arterial clots, reducing the likelihood of suffering heart attacks and cerebral thrombosis.
How does EMS training help to recover?
EMS training greatly assists body to repair sore muscles, heal muscle strains and recover in a short period of time. EMS procedures are successfully used by physical therapy experts to aid patients recovery. We step even further by making possible for trainees recovering after injury or even surgery to remove training limitations and continue their fitness program. Professional athletes that need to stay in shape during demanding tournament schedule incorporated EMS in they training regimen a long time ago to achieve faster recovery in lesser time in comparison to the traditional training.
Increase core stability
Most of people associate the word “core” with abdominal area. Well, in fact human core consists of 35 different muscle groups attached to pelvis from back to hips. EMS training significantly improves posture and core muscle strength after just a few weeks of training. In some cases improvement was over 50% based on the performance tests.
Most of us are living busy lives. We spend long hours in the offices sitting in front of the computers most of the day. EMS training will help you build better core strength and improve posture.
Alleviate back pain
EMS training sessions, specifically in relaxation mode, can cure muscle soreness and strains along the spine starting from lower back area and all the way up to the neck and trapezius muscle area. Our staff can personally swear by it! None of us have been experiencing back pain since the moment we started incorporating EMS training into out fitness routine. Yes, we do train each other not only because we are in love with EMS but also because it is extremely effective.
Improve post-injury recovery
My EMS Health helps recovering from injuries using the EMS technology. The electric muscle stimulation sessions improve recovery time from injuries by allowing to continue with regular fitness sessions for those, who otherwise would not be able to train conventionally. We helped several clients with the cases ranging from dislocated shoulder to post arthroscopic surgery (meniscus repair) to recover quickly and pain free. It was unimaginable for them to pick up a weight or do squats. Our equipment and trainers’ knowledge makes it possible to overcome such limitations and help to get back on track with normal, healthy, and happy life routine.
EMS Training Programs
My EMS Health offers various training programs for you. These electric muscle training programs are specially designed by EMS training experts that will help strengthen and sculpt your body and achieve weight loss. EMS training is a proven technique that is productive and effective in relieving your back pain, muscle strains, and increasing your body’s overall strength.
My EMS Health offers the following programs:
EMS Strength Training
Strength training provides the benefit of
Muscle strength
Muscle tone
Strengthening internal muscles
Strength training generates muscle strength and consequently high caloric burn due to a full-body muscle activation simultaneously.
A program using 85Hz produces a maximum effect in terms of maximum strength as well as improvement in strength endurance. Visible body sculpting effects such as changes in muscle size and body composition can be noticed after a few EMS training sessions. EMS has proven to increase maximum strength by 8-9% after four sessions while increasing maximum dynamic strength by an average of 17%.
An increase in the size of the arms, shoulders, legs, chest, and back is typically noted among male trainees. Female clients usually display significantly improved strength without size increases. The greatest results are seen after three to four weeks of training, twice a week.
Relaxation
The relaxation program speeds up recovery by lowering muscle tension and improving the metabolic properties of the muscles. Muscle regeneration is improved and the body recovers through a relaxing cool down. The relaxation technique also helps reduce permanent muscle tension, which can present itself as chronic pain.
The rapid sequence of tension and relaxation reduces pain sensitivity. This approach comes into play when alleviating back and neck pain. Coupled with stretching, relaxation exercises are a fantastic way to finish EMS training sessions to set off body recovery and pain relief.
Metabolic and Endurance Training
EMS training enhances endurance, effectively delivering on the objective of endurance training: to increase metabolic capacity by multiplying the density of mitochondria. EMS training encourages a breakdown of fat through regular and intensive training along with a buildup of muscle mass to positively affect metabolic rate.
The energy needed by the muscles is generated in the mitochondria — aptly known as the powerhouse of the cell. During strenuous training, however, the body requires more energy than can be prepared by the mitochondria. The body responds to this need by increasing the number of mitochondria to maximize metabolic capacity. Low-frequency EMS training has proven to be successful in this regard leading to an increase in mitochondria of up to seven times.
Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is a beneficial EMS training program when you have injuries.
Voluntary strength training does not always properly restore the atrophied muscles surrounding the joints. The brain blocks the messages to the muscles that allow individuals hindered by injuries to execute a movement optimally.
However, through full-body EMS (Electro Muscle Stimulation) training, inactive muscles can be rehabilitated and rebuilt more effectively to support recovery.
Being able to activate over 90% of your muscle fibers with EMS technology will help the muscles or muscle groups that have been inactive get them back up to full strength.
