Did you know that EMS training is the number one service at our studio?

The popularity of EMS training is supported by numerous scientific studies, which demonstrate its benefits for various target groups.

  • Muscles grow and fatigue regardless of the intensity of EMS training.

    Remember when the trainer said not to overdo it the first time? Even starting with small steps leads to success.

    Your muscles grow regardless of the intensity of the EMS training! Studies measured that the quadriceps grew in proportion to the training intensity, but it’s important to note that noticeable muscle growth occurred even at low intensities. As they say – slow and steady wins the race.

  • EMS enhances maximum performance in conjunction with other sports.

    Studies show that adding electrical impulses to regular training significantly enhances an athlete’s maximum performance. In the study, EMS training was incorporated into athletes’ regular routines. The results not only showed muscle growth but also improvements in explosive qualities, such as jump height or sprint speed.

    For ice hockey players, EMS training also helped improve muscle strength and specific skills. It’s also important to note that the changes occurred in an extremely short period of time (3 weeks).

  • EMS improves sleep quality.

    There is no doubt that physical exercise improves quality of life and sleep. Studies support EMS training as a powerful aid for sleep. For example, electrical impulses stimulate the production of growth hormone, which in turn supports the effectiveness of different sleep phases, leading to better quality sleep.

  • For cardiovascular diseases, EMS is a very good choice!

    It’s not uncommon to hear that due to various heart diseases, exercise is contraindicated for some people. For years, studies have supported the idea of recommending EMS training for those suffering from cardiovascular diseases or even heart failure, as EMS offers a more passive and controlled form of exercise. Studies show that EMS training results in a significant decrease in diastolic blood pressure and a much lower likelihood of hospitalization.

  • EMS training helps boost metabolic rate, which in turn contributes to long-term and stable weight loss.

    Studies show that EMS training (including in addition to other intense training) significantly increases a person’s metabolic rate both at rest and during exercise. In addition to more effective weight loss, EMS helps prevent diseases that slow down metabolism, which often affect people with a sedentary lifestyle.

    The study results also highlight that simply adhering to internationally approved recommended movement norms does not yield the same metabolism-boosting results.
