EMS: From a therapy method to a full-body workout
When it comes to fitness & home training, the use of EMS systems appears to be a comparatively new trend. However, only the adaptation to independent training at home is new - the technology itself has already proven itself over decades.
Electrical muscle stimulation training (also called electromyostimulation) was originally developed in the field of physiotherapy and rehabilitation, where it is used both to relieve pain and to build strength after injury.
Since the 1970s, EMS training has also been increasingly used in competitive sports. Its focus is on the targeted strengthening of muscle areas that are particularly stressed, depending on the type of sport. This can significantly improve jumping power and joint stability.
In the 1990s, the potential of EMS for fitness was discovered: EMS studios appeared in many places, promising an effective full-body workout for all major muscle groups. Training took place in rented suits, under the guidance of a coach.
Through EMS studios, more and more people discovered the benefits of this training method for themselves. The development of modern EMS suits for training at home was the next logical step: With the myostyle Ultra EMS system you train 100% flexible, highly effective and with maximum comfort!
How it works: What makes training with current pulses so effective
The technical functioning of EMS training is directly in the name: The EMS system generates electrical impulses that are transmitted to the skin via electrodes, spread through the tissue and generate muscle contractions.
EMS system intensifies every exercise: Whether squat or bench press - the electrical impulses stimulate the tensed muscles beyond the body's own level. So you can achieve visible results with only two short workouts per week in just 1-3 months.
With myostyle, the big advantage is that you train with innovative mid-frequency technology and optimal pulse transmission through electrodes with a large surface area. Many of our customers find training with the myostyle Smart Suit more pleasant than with conventional EMS systems:
- The medium-frequency impulses are perceived as a wavelike tingling sensation - a clear sign of positive cell activation
- You can set the program and its intensities by yourself
- the training is absolutely painless and makes at most gentle muscle soreness

How long does a training session with the myostyle Smart Suit last?
The question of how long and how often you should train per week to achieve an optimal effect is an important topic in sports science. A general answer is difficult to give here, because it depends of course on your fitness level and your training goals.
With EMS training, 2 x 20 minutes per week is considered optimal for most people. Accordingly, you will find a variety of workouts of 10-20 minutes in the myostyle Smart App - depending on the training goal and the selected program.
You can also customize the intensity of your workouts. For example, if you plan to start with only one EMS session per week or prefer several short sessions. If in doubt, always seek advice from a coach, doctor or physiotherapist.
In particular, the EMS training is suitable:
- For fitness fans who have a lot of stress and little time
- for people who don't like gym
- for people, who have already tried everything and now finally want to achieve their training goals
- as an accompaniment to a diet program
- for returning to training after an illness or injury
- for people with joint problems
- for people with physical disabilities
- for self-confessed couch potatoes who want to do something good for their body
- for active competitive athletes, especially during competition preparation
Essential for your training success: The regeneration time
The body needs a recovery period after a workout - this is also and especially true after a particularly intense EMS workout. Therefore, you should plan at least 48 hours of recovery time between workouts.
In this phase your body is by no means "lazy", quite the opposite: this is exactly the time when tiny muscle injuries are healed and new muscle fibers are formed.
This regeneration process can be supported by appropriate measures. You can find detailed tips for an optimal post-workout phase here: "Your push to the finish line: Our best tips for your successful EMS training"
