The standout feature? Each session lasts just 20 minutes, twice a week, delivering results equivalent to hours spent in the gym. Plus, EMS is gentle on your joints, as there's no heavy lifting or high-impact movement involved. It’s a perfect fit for anyone, regardless of age or fitness level, particularly for those with limited time but aiming for exceptional outcomes.
Scientific research confirms that Whole-Body EMS training is among the most efficient and safest ways to reshape your body. Whether you’re an elite athlete or a senior seeking to regain muscle mass, EMS enhances performance, mobility, circulation, and metabolism.
Within just 30 days, you’ll witness significant improvements in muscle mass and overall strength, with only two 20-minute sessions per week.
Each EMS session with The Body Lab Concierge is customized and conducted by certified trainers in the comfort of your home, office, park, or even at the beach.
EMS Science: Experience Fitness Like Never Before
Our muscles are made up of two types of skeletal fibers: slow-twitch and fast-twitch. Understanding how these fibers work is key to unlocking optimal workout results.
Slow-twitch fibers are essential for endurance activities like walking, swimming, or cycling. They contract slowly, allowing sustained efforts without fatigue.
Fast-twitch fibers support explosive movements such as jumping or sprinting. They contract quickly, burn energy efficiently (helping with fat loss), and provide the strength needed for powerful actions.
For total body strength, fitness, and tone, it's crucial to engage both fiber types. EMS specifically targets the often-underutilized fast-twitch fibers, amplifying your workout’s effectiveness and maximizing results.
At The Body Lab Concierge, our certified trainers personalize your sessions to meet your unique needs. Unlike conventional workouts, EMS activates all muscle groups simultaneously, making it far more efficient than traditional routines, which typically focus on isolated groups.
EMS also delivers a deep toning effect on core muscles, achieving the same benefits for low-lying muscle fibers as Yoga or Pilates, but without the time-intensive holds.
The Science Behind EMS
Studies highlight the incredible benefits of whole-body EMS. For instance, research from Bayreuth University in Germany found:
85% of participants improved their body shape after just six weeks.
High-intensity EMS training led to significant muscle definition and tone.
Whole-body EMS was up to 40% more intensive than traditional weight training.
Participants experienced a 12% increase in maximum strength.
Endurance and fitness levels improved by 69%.
