/ EMS Training
Highly Effective, It's The Training HIT!

/ EMS Training – Electrical Muscle Stimulation
If you're looking for an effective strength-training method, and love the idea of completing a week's worth of workouts in just two 20-minute sessions, Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) training is for you! Originally designed for use in space travel, EMS training involves stimulating the muscles with electrical impulses. It provides a highly efficient full-body training method that works deep into the muscles. Do these high-intensity sessions regularly for rapid results.
/ Build Muscle & Burn Calories
EMS is primarily designed for muscle development but can improve speed and resilience too. It's also useful to relieve back pain since the electrical impulses are better than other training methods at reaching the deeper muscles. Since an EMS training session is more intense than a standard workout, this method also burns more calories and has a calorific afterburn effect. When you continuously build muscle over long periods, the result can be an improvement in basal metabolic rate causing you to use more energy when at rest – lying down or sleeping – than before you began EMS training.
/ How Does EMS Work?
EMS is a high-intensity training method that uses electrical impulses to stimulate the muscles. These impulses are transmitted by electrodes inside pads that adhere to the skin, or that are integrated into special training suits. EMS training requires professional guidance and equipment. Each training session takes between 15 and 25 minutes.
At the Mount Med Resort, we make sure that EMS training sessions are adapted to suit beginners' fitness levels. As well as checking that the workout intensity is right, we also ensure that our guests take the right amount of time to recover between sessions.
