Using EMS，the athletes from various disciplines experienced increases in maximum isometric strength of between 15% and 40%, with an average of 32.6% .
The average improvement in maximum isometric strength following EMS training with untrained subjects was 23.5% .
Athletes can achieve 30 – 40% improvements in maximum strength after only 5 weeks using EMS .
Case study of a high-performance weightlifter: 4 months of EMS training: 1 RM (repetition maximum) increased during squats by around 20kg, further improvements to ‘snatch’ and ‘clean and jerk’.
EMS can also be provided to untrained people and those looking to get fit: muscle size increased by around 10% after 8 weeks using isokinetic training (eccentric and concentric) combined with EMS.
