You are not sure if EMS fitness training is right for you? Read the excerpt from the clinical study below. EMS is quite new to the North American market, but European researchers have been studying the benefits of electronic muscle stimulation for decades.
In 1791, Luigi Galvani was the first to prove that current can activate scientific evidence of muscle.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, researchers continued to study and document the exact electrical properties of muscle movement.
In the 1960s, Soviet sports scientists applied EMS to train elite athletes, claiming a 40% gain.
In the 1970s, these studies were shared at conferences with Western sports organizations.
Further medical physiology studies have clarified the mechanisms by which electrical stimulation causes muscle, blood vessel and nerve cell adaptation. The earliest widely used EMS was a physical therapist for injury rehabilitation and prevention. As the effectiveness and benefits of EMS are widely studied and recognized, EMS is increasingly used as a strength training tool for athletes and as a fitness tool for health-conscious people.
The 18th Congress of the International Society of Electrophysiology and Kinesiology focuses on EMS training and athletic performance. Many scientific studies have carried out general and specific physical and health enhancements about their effectiveness.
