EMS Eliminates Barriers to Strength Training

ByDevin Jones

Did you know, the National Institute of Health recommends 2-3 sessions of strength training per week for optimal health. With older adults, ages 65+, having even more requirements (i.e. balance exercises and bone-strengthening exercises).

But few people are meeting these critical nationally recommended requirements. Why? you may ask. 

Well, while there are many benefits to strength training, there are also some serious barriers. 

FOUR BARRIERS TO STRENGTH TRAINING:

  • Skill and form. If you’ve never trained before, it can take up to 4 months to learn proper form (according to Dr. Stacy Sims, exercise physiologist).
  • Potential for injury. Women 40+ are more prone to injury due to hormonal changes.
  • Effectiveness. The average person doesn’t know how to create a resistance training protocol that will actually move the needle (strength, cardio, growing lean mass and muscle fibers) so you’re left to your own devices and results will vary.
  • Time. Proper strength training sessions take time–usually 60-75 minutes in the gym–and few people have that much time to spare.

Here’s the thing: we want people, especially women, to strength train. 

And we want them to do so safely. Here’s where EMS is truly revolutionary.

EMS ELIMINATES BARRIERS TO STRENGTH TRAINING.

Because the EMS suit does the “loading” for you, you don’t have to lift heavy weights and spend hours in the gym. And, EMS has been scientifically proven to be effective in muscle development, strength and even bone density maintenance. 

EMS workouts allow you to reach that NIH recommended 2-3x a week strength training goal, without risking injury.

If you want to strength train, but don’t have the time or skill to do so on your own, you’re in the right place.

Let’s get you strong.
