  Training Hard But Still Not Playing Better? What EMS Did For College Pitchers

  Oct 5, 202611 min

  University scientists tested 21 college baseball pitchers in three simulated five-inning games. Each game had up to 70 fastballs. After every inning, pitchers sat, used an arm bike, or used EMS on the throwing arm for six minutes. Researchers measured heart rate, effort, arm motion, and blood lactate. Only EMS cut lactate, from 3.85 to 2.01. Sitting left it flat. The bike raised it. Eighteen of 21 pitchers preferred EMS. A peer-reviewed US strength journal published the work. That evidence suggests EMS can help pitchers with short recovery between innings. Other stop-start athletes may gain too.

  What Did Scientists Measure When Athletes Added EMS?

  Sep 26, 202615 min

  Scientists in France and the United States put EMS to the test. They did not guess. They measured muscle strength, jump height, kick speed, muscle size, nerve drive, and blood lactate. Young gymnasts gained knee strength of about 35% to 51% in three weeks. Soccer players kicked faster after five weeks. One lab found strength up 27% in eight weeks, with more muscle mass. Pitchers cleared lactate better with EMS than with jogging. Swimmers cleared more lactate with EMS than with sitting still. The papers ran in top sport journals from known universities. That is why the work is worth trusting. The measured wins were for athletes who wanted extra strength, jump, kick power, or faster recovery. The same idea may help other people who train hard, and for more than one goal.

  What Did Scientists Find After Ten Weeks Of Stimulated Leg Cycling?

  Sep 26, 202618 min

  Sydney scientists tested EMS cycling in seven women with advanced multiple sclerosis. They ran 18 sessions of 40 minutes. Current rose slowly. Pedal speed stayed at 10 rpm. They measured current, power, heart rate, oxygen use, and thigh size. Peak EMS reached 91 mA in the thighs. That was higher than an older MS study. Estimated thigh volume rose 10.7% and 11.6%. Heart rate rose from 67 to 85. Oxygen use more than doubled. Many rated transfers better. The findings suggest EMS can help people with weak legs still work muscle, size, and transfers. The authors say it may also help people with cerebral palsy or incomplete spinal injury. The work came from the University of Sydney and Neuroscience Research Australia. It was published in Sweden’s Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine.

  What Happens When Labs Make Almost Every Muscle Work at Once?

  Sep 26, 202623 min

  University labs in Germany and Spain tested full body EMS in a real science journal. They timed runs and skates. They measured oxygen use, jump height, leg strength, and muscle size. After six short sessions, runners used more oxygen and needed less effort at the same pace. Hockey players skated 10 metres 5% faster and jumped with 5.15% more power. Soccer players got stronger legs. People eating less kept more muscle. These results suggest full body EMS can help runners, team players, and busy adults. Other people may benefit too.

  What Did a Berlin Study Measure When EMS Joined Front Crawl?

  Sep 25, 202621 min

  Scientists in Berlin asked a simple question. Can EMS-style FES help people whose legs are paralysed swim better? They studied two men with complete paraplegia after spinal cord injury. Both could already do front crawl with their arms. For 10 weeks they swam in a 16 m pool. Staff timed laps with no help, with FES on the thighs, and with FES plus extra back stimulation. FES made average laps about 15.4% and 8.7% quicker. Both together made them about 19.3% and 20.9% quicker. Water-proof sensors showed the knees straighter by up to 60 degrees. After 30–45 minutes, both men said tight spasms stayed away for up to four hours. The work was checked by other experts and printed in a trusted science journal.
