UNLEASH YOUR STRENGTH WITH EMS FITNESS #REVIEW…

Posted by Juliet Wheater on 04 Feb 2025

20 minutes work out anyone?

I was invited by Epsom & Ewell Families to enjoy a full-body workout that would take just 20 minutes but is scientifically proven to be the equivalent of 90 minutes of conventional strength training in the gym. I simply said, sign me up!

EMS Fitness offers cutting-edge Whole Body Electrical Muscle Stimulation (WB-EMS) training, which is the fastest growing trend in global fitness and now luckily for us, readily available at a local and beautiful home studio in Surrey (30 minutes or so drive from Epsom).

Guido Regazzoni is the man behind EMS Fitness and is a certified EMS X Body trainer with a Level 2 Gym Instructor CIMSPA accreditation. After 25 years working in London in global mobility he left the corporate world behind to pursue his lifelong passion for sports and fitness in setting up EMS studio.

After being introduced to EMS by his wife Nicky he was hooked and saw results in his own body within six weeks, both in terms of visible muscle development, recovery and general fitness and wellbeing.

When I arrived for my workout, Guido was warm and welcoming and introduced me to his well equipped studio, complete with state-of-the-art EMS technology with a Nordic Track treadmill, Technogym weights bench and plenty of other training gear to offer you the best training experience. He is passionate about creating bespoke training sessions for his clients.

“EMS” stands for “Electrical Muscle Stimulation,” which refers to this specific training method which uses electrical impulses to stimulate muscle contractions, allowing for a more intense workout by activating a higher percentage of muscle fibres, compared to traditional exercise methods.

Essentially, it’s a way to target and work multiple muscle groups simultaneously through a special suit with electrodes placed strategically on the body. Although you arrive in your workout gear, it’s not required! EMS technology means that you’ll be given a top and ¾ length trousers to wear. Training is delivered through a comfortable state-of-the-art suit with built-in electrodes, designed for all body types, which clients wear over a thin base layer. Guido lightly soaks the pads of the suit, which I can only describe as a padded waist coat, with large straps to your quads and then you’re good to go.

Guido guided me through several exercises and my suit got straight to work sending pulses through the suit, as I moved. My only frame of reference was how I used to use a Power Plate – whereby your movement, is intensified with the help of the vibration. EMS is for 2025 and goes to the next level. Be sweet to Guido however, as he has the controller to set the intensity of each electrical pulse to your muscles! I can completely appreciate the fact that by using this method, you’d burn fat, build muscle and achieve a toned physique faster by activating up to 90% of your muscles simultaneously.

I really enjoyed my exercises, they were slow, considered and steady but I know had a further reaching impact due to EMS. Expect to see results in your physique after approximately six sessions after doing two 20 minute EMS sessions per week, as part of a healthy and active lifestyle.

Regular clients will also receive a full consultation and a mind blowing body composition scan using Tanita technology. At 49 years old, I have the metabolic rate of a 35 year old, I will most certainly take that!

A great training option for those that are older or coming back to fitness after a period away, as your joints are not put under strain during EMS training. Also by using the combination of cardio and strength training, routines at low intensity and impact, so that clients can return to feeling fit and well more quickly. Furthermore, increased muscle strength assists in the prevention of osteoporosis and facilitates human growth hormone concentration responsible for cell growth and regeneration.

No matter your age or fitness levels, EMS can help you achieve more!
