Latest Research on Electrical Muscle Stimulators (EMS) for Training and Recovery

As I celebrate 14 years on the Blog this May 2021, one recurring theme is the use of Electrical Muscle Stimulators (EMS) devices, and keeping up with the latest research using this technology.

In the video below, Derek Hansen gives an update on the benefits of using an Electrical Muscle Stimulation device and discusses practical applications for Recovery & Regeneration, as well as strength training. This was recorded for our Weekly Zoom Calls (Sept 2020). Derek has worked with several professional teams, both individual and team events.

As most of you know from my newsletter, I belong to this “Recovery & Regeneration” group for Coaches & Therapists. It started off from the NACACTFCA Puerto Rico conference in March 2020 that ended up being a Virtual conference due to the pandemic. We meet Every Monday at 8:45am Pacific Time, 11:45am Eastern Time, 4:45pm UK time, etc and lasts 75 minutes. The time & date has changed already, and it might change again in May 2021. Email me at jimson@speedendurance.com for more details, everyone is welcome to join, and there is no cost.
