Traditional Training vs EMS Body Training
30 April, 2019
EMS Body Training: Not exactly ‘new to the market’
EMS body training might be new to the vocabulary of many, but the concept of Electrical Muscle Stimulation has been around for far longer than many people know.
Stretching as far as the 1970s, EMS was used to counter muscle atrophy in astronauts, focusing on quick muscle repair through the expulsion of electrodes into the affected area. EMS was also used to aid with rehabilitation and injuries for athletes training in professional sports.
As the technology proved effective in more ways than one, scientists during the 1990s began to implement EMS as a full body workout.
Fast forward to 2010, EMS devices became a worldwide phenomenon in Europe, as lay people began to utilise the new training systems, effectively improving use of time, workout efficiency and results.
As EMS has been on the workout scene for decades, much research and improvements have been made. Research now supports this and proves that EMS leads to an increase in endurance, stamina and fitness levels.
Evolving rapidly in popularity, EMS has now become a common alternative for training in most European countries, and now, Australia. Sydney has become a strong advocate for EMS body training, as many Sydneysiders are opting for the time-efficient workout over traditional training methods.
