If you spend some time a week taking care of yourself you will be much happier.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #009dff;\"><strong>High intensity training<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>With high intensity training we don\u2019t mean you are going to get burn or that it will force you to do a really intense effort.<\/p>\n<p>What happens with the EMS is that we combine a muscular contraction produce by the EMS and a muscular contraction due to your movement so this makes the result the same as when you only do a high intensity contractions.<\/p>\n<p>Summing up, it helps you make big effort with less effort from you and gets to activate deeper muscular connections that you can\u2019t normally contract<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #009dff;\"><strong>Muscular rehab process helper<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Keeping in mind that the first use of EMS was in the early 1950\u2019s by physiotherapists to help in the rehab process proves the capability of EMS to actually benefit those who try this new therapy.\u00a0 The fact that we can make a deep muscular contraction without having to make a huge muscular effort is the key to have a shorter rehab time. We can even develop stronger muscles with the EMS during the rehab than the ones we had before the injury.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #009dff;\"><strong>Different uses of EMS<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In the beginnings EMS therapies were used in rehab centres to avoid the lost of muscular tissue and shape during long bed stays.<\/p>\n<p>Nowadays it is commonly used by professional sport men and women due to the fact that EMS fits any sport you can think of as a complementary training.<\/p>\n<p>But it is not restricted to sport professionals; lots of people use it as weekly training as it only requires 30 minutes a week or even for beauty reasons as the effect on cellulites has been proved.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #009dff;\"><strong>The personal trainer, the master piece<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Day by day the number of EMS users is increased. Once you discover it, you love it. The capability of this training method to obtain results within only a few weeks of training, having a personal trainer during you EMS training session and not having to spend the full day in the gym is the main reason for people to really love EMS.<\/p>\n<p>What we have to always remember is that not everybody who has an EMS station is a valid trainer; we should look for a professional trainer who has done some course on EMS training, if we don\u2019t we might get injured while training.<\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t forget what EMS actually is; we are sending contracting stimulus to our muscles if we do not control it or if we are given the wrong instructions to follow during the trainings we really can get a serious damage done in our body.<\/p>\n<p>The personal trainer is the one who controls how much intensity the stimulus should have in every part of our body, it\u2019s also the only one who can set up a series of movements to do while the impulse is send to the muscles and should always supervise your movements, correct them whenever is needed and adapt the trainings to your personal needs or limitations. If this is done, the benefits of the EMS will be maximized and the risks minimized.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Un aliado del deporte.
