EMS stands for electrical muscle stimulation. Electrodes deliver mild current impulses that prompt the muscles to contract. With emsforms this happens through pads built into the shorts.
How a session runs
- Put them on. The shorts fit like a pair of short sports leggings.
- Choose a mode. 8 modes with different impulse patterns, controlled from the unit at the waistband.
- Set the intensity. 19 levels. Start at level 1 and work your way up.
- Carry on. 10 minutes per session is the guideline.
What is inside
- Electrode pads. Built into the fabric and placed so they sit on the glutes and thighs. Nothing slips, nothing has to be stuck on.
- Control unit at the waistband. One button for the mode, two for the intensity. You can reach it sitting or standing.
- 8 modes, 19 levels. Eight impulse programmes, each with 19 intensity levels. The lowest is barely noticeable, the highest is distinct.
- Cable free. No connection, no device next to you. The shorts work on their own.
What EMS is not
Not a replacement for exercise, not a treatment, not a miracle cure. It is an additional stimulus you can take without setting time aside for it.
Please read the safety information before your first session.
