Application history of electric pulse in human physiology
As early as 100 years ago, it was found in the experiment of frog thigh nerve that electric current could make muscles contract. In the 1950s and 1960s, when the United States and the Soviet Union launched a space landing competition, it was found that astronauts would experience muscle atrophy under weightlessness in space. Therefore, the principle of electric pulse (EMS) is applied to the human body, helping astronauts to keep fit passively and preventing muscle atrophy.
What is Electrical Pulse (EMS) Fitness?
In recent years, the fitness trend has swept the world, and many people have tried it, but it seems that more people give up halfway. Therefore, the German R&D team applied Electro-Muscle Stimulation (EMS) to rehabilitation medicine to prevent muscle atrophy and gain muscle. It is said that as long as you exercise 1 time, 20 minutes each time can achieve the effect of traditional exercise for 2~3 hours.
Its principle is to simulate brain biology to transmit current signals, and output micro-current through equipment to directly transmit signals to muscles, thus promoting passive contraction of muscles, and at the same time, performing simple fitness actions, so that passive contraction and active movement of muscles produce strong contraction reactions, accelerating fat consumption and muscle formation.
Electrical pulse fitness is not suitable for everyone.
Electrical pulse (EMS) fitness training is not suitable for patients with electrode sensitivity or epilepsy, severe blood circulation disorder, arrhythmia, tuberculosis, tumor disease, severe nervous system disease, diabetes, liver disease, pregnant women, heart problems or low back pain.
Electrical pulse fitness is more like an auxiliary training tool.
Experts said that although electric pulse fitness claims to produce fitness effects through weight and aerobic training, it is more like an auxiliary training tool. Everyone's physique is different, and the possible effects are different. Whether it is short-term or long-term, it is necessary to cooperate with exercise to achieve the best results. In addition, the quality of the equipment and whether the human body can carry out this activity also need attention.
At present, dozens of pulse fitness entrepreneurs in Chinese mainland have obtained financing, but in Taiwan Province Province, it seems that only small instruments are sold. As for the introduction of large-scale equipment, it depends on whether domestic fitness operators or other entrepreneurs are aiming at the lazy fitness business opportunities.
