Frequently Asked Questions
How effective is a 20-minute session?
A 20-minute workout on an EMS simulator is equated to a 2-hour session in a traditional gym due to the simultaneous workout of 90% of the muscles.
Are there any contraindications to EMS training?
What is needed for training?
You no longer need to bring a large and heavy bag for training. All you need is: your underwear and socks. Everything else you can get in the studio. You will be provided with the necessary equipment
How much you need to exercise to see the result?
The result can be felt and seen after the first workout. We know that each client has an individual level of physical fitness, that each has their own wishes and expectations from EMS training and that the body of each person reacts differently, especially in the initial stage of training. That’s why special training programs are developed and they are different from one another. The optimal number of sessions are: 2-3 times a week.
How safe is EMS training?
EMS training is safe. An electrical impulse replicates the natural reaction of the body when the central nervous system sends a signal to the muscles. There is no strain on the joints. Training is suitable for people with any level of physical fitness. Moreover, electromyostimulation has been actively used in physiotherapy for professional athletes for more than 60 years, including athletes preparing for Olympic Games, as well as cosmonauts.
Will EMS training help to reduce back pain?
Yes, of course. Back pain is most likely due to undeveloped musculature and muscle imbalances. EMS-training will tone up the muscles due to exercising of the deep muscles of your back. Lymph drainage massage at the end of the workout will help to consolidate the result.
Is there scientific proof that it works?
Can EMS training be used alongside other forms of exercise?
Depending on your current level of fitness, EMS training can be used alongside other forms of training and exercise. This has to be managed carefully though, so your Bodystreet Personal Trainer will advise you on the best way to use EMS training within your current fitness regime.
