EMS is called muscle electrical stimulation technology, also known as muscle electrical movement technology.

The simple explanation is that under normal circumstances, muscles start to take the initiative after receiving signals from the brain.

EMS technology directly transmits signals to muscles through current stimulation, which promotes passive movement of muscles, thus achieving the effect of fitness.

In fact, EMS technology has a long history. As early as 200 years ago, scientists put forward the scientific basis that it can activate muscles.

In 1960s, scientists in the former Soviet Union began to apply EMS technology to the training of elite athletes, prompting them to increase their muscles.

Bruce Lee, a superstar, revealed in an interview that Bruce Lee used electric shock stimulation to keep his muscles strong (it is said that it was recommended by a Japanese apprentice to Bruce Lee).

At present, the famous EMS equipments in the world are K-EMS STUDIO, xbody, amplitrain, vision body, etc.

Is it reliable?

EMS technology does exist in the field of sports rehabilitation and competitive sports.

It was first used for sports rehabilitation such as tendon rupture and ligament injury. As early as 15 years ago, the weightlifting team in China used this technique to stimulate weak muscles in special training.

But the problem is that this technology is not particularly mature so far, and it is not for those "lazy people". It is more like an auxiliary training tool, and "assistance" is the key.

So the purpose of buying that kind of civil EMS fitness equipment is to use the principle of EMS, so the following situations are likely to occur:

(1) users have local muscle spasm and stiffness (even professional athletes will have local muscle spasm when using under the guidance of coaches).

(2) The user's own muscle strength is unbalanced, and the chest is soft and the abdominal muscles are hard.

(3) Electrical stimulation can cause tingling, while micro-current without tingling is basically ineffective.
