WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO ACHIEVE?
XBODY uses cutting-edge technology. Trusted by athletes and people like you in over 55 countries, it is the perfect time saving workout of the 21st century.
BUILD MUSCLES
Over 90% of your muscles will be stimulated at the same time. The electrodes are placed on the body, directly over each major muscle group, so all the impulses reach their target. It’s easy, safe and you can’t go wrong.
ACHIEVE A TONED BODY
Full-body EMS strength training sessions can help you get your muscles toned, burn fat and reduce cellulite. Circulation of the muscular and connective tissues will be enhanced which can lead to firmer and more toned skin as well.
SAVE TIME
No time? No excuse! One 20 min session with EMS replaces up to 90-minute conventional training. Up to 3x Human Growth Hormone is emitted, around 90% of muscles trained simultaneously. Including all muscle fibres as well as deep tissue muscles.
IMPROVE POSTURE
Using EMS can help improve your posture, as the special training programs contain exercises for the back, the lower back, the abs and even the shoulders.
RELIEVE JOINTS
Unlike regular training with weights, EMS Training will not put additional pressure on your joints and with the help of a specialist, it can be used after an injury or with joint pain as well.
BALANCE OUT THE MUSCULAR SYSTEM
EMS can also be used if there are muscular imbalances or underdeveloped muscles in the body. Targeting the appropriate muscle groups is easy.
About EMS Training
WHAT IS ELECTRIC MUSCLE STIMULATION (EMS)
EMS is the elicitation of muscle contraction using electric impulses.
Does it sound too scientific? It’s actually quite simple.
The impulses are generated by a device and delivered through electrodes to the skin surface above the muscles to be stimulated. The impulses cause the muscles to contract, so the result is similar to the actual movement and regular contractions of the muscles.
EMS training can be used for conditioning and strengthening of muscles, it is truly the training of the 21st century.
HOW DOES EMS TRAINING WORK?
During traditional strength training the brain sends impulses which stimulate certain muscles to contract. However, not all muscles have a well-developed connection to the brain and these muscles are not activated as easily and therefore they will not develop so well.
EMS Training stimulates all the major muscle groups and also helps to develop the motoric nerve connections relating to muscle movement. By sending electric impulses directly to these motoric nerves, even the weakly connected muscles are activated.
Because muscle fibers are activated in a non-regular order with EMS Training, amore intense level of training is enabled from the start, which creates more muscle fiber at an accelerated rate. More active muscle tissue requires more energy intake which therefore burns more calories, even at rest!
EMS TRAINING: ONLY 2 X 20 MINUTES PER WEEK IS ENOUGH
EMS Training works with electric impulses which are similar to the body’s natural stimulus transductions. These additional impulses are stimulating muscles via the adjustable full body XBody Training Suit. This state of the art technology gives all the benefits of a 90 minute workout in just 20 minutes, and 2 trainings per week is enough!
XBody EMS Training allows gaining muscle mass and shedding fat, increases calorie burning capacity and boosts metabolism.
TRADITIONAL vs. EMS TRAINING
Its the fast twitch fibre activation right from the get go that makes our training so efficient and loved by athletes.
In traditional training you need a high weights/low reps workout to achieve fast twitch fibre activation. Which, depending on your circumstances, isn’t always safe. So you can train like an athlete without the pressure on your joints.
We can safely overload your muscles and make them adapt whereas in traditional training you must learn to perform a movement safely before overloading a muscle safely. Therefore we increase your metabolism much faster, resulting in faster weight loss.
And around 90% of your muscles get activated (concentrically and eccentrically) which saves you heaps of time!
IS IT SAFE?
The answer to that question is a simple yes!
We simply amplify what you’re already doing. Please watch the video to get a better understanding.
However, there are certain contra-indicators like with all high intensity training. In our case: if you’re pregnant, wearing a pacemaker or currently taking antibiotics , we can’t train you (at the moment).
Please reach out to us if you have a condition you’re not sure about.
WHAT BENEFITS CAN YOU EXPECT?
A study with over 1300 participants though shows that 75% of people reach the following goals within the first 3 months of training with EMS:
- muscle building (men)/toning up (women)
- increase in general fitness (men & women)
- reduced (lower) back pain (men & women)
- weight loss (men & women)
However, even though we are the most time-efficient training around, we don’t have the magic pill either. We always say everybody and every body is different, so of course individual results can differ a lot, depending on what else you’re doing.
SUFFERING FROM INJURY?
Not only athletes love our training because they can simulate complete sport specific movements under load for more efficient movement. No, it is also widely used for rehab purposes:
- athletes that want to get back to their sports quickly
- older people who don’t feel safe pushing weights in a traditional gym
- everyday people who just want to get better soon.
