Mike Tabb
EMS Trainer
Everything I’ve achieved in my sporting career has not come easily but I love it. I’ve always had to squeeze every bit of performance out of my body just to be competitive which means that anyone I work with gets far better results than me and I get a little bit of vicarious success from them.
My Bio
Body Science
I’ve spent 35 years in the fitness industry studying and at the coal face but its all about seeing people reach their goals. When I discovered EMS I knew it was a game changer and had to bring it to my community.

How it Works
The EMS Technology
The electrical effect on certain muscle groups causes them to be directly "switched on". The impulses are applied directly.
Why EMS ?
Time
Save yourself time by getting all the benefits of 3 X 1 hour workouts in only 20 minutes!
Results
See progress in fat loss and muscle development faster than conventional training.
Safe
EMS training puts minimal load on the joints and tendons.
Cost
More cost effective than a normal PT both per session and in the number of session it takes to reach your goals.
Work Out
Right Now
In addition, EMS triggers mechanisms and metabolic processes in the organism that allow you to burn up to 2000 kcal more in the next 48 hours, which is not the case after a classic workout.
500 Cal's a session

Improve Your Athletic Performance...
EMS can improve power and stability in the movements you use in your sport.
It is also awesome for addressing any muscle imbalances which helps prevent injury.
EMS VS CONVENTIONAL TRAINING
EMS programming is very adaptable to the goals of the user, development of fast twitch fibres, muscle hypertrophy, muscular power or enhancing kinetic chain activation in movement patterns used in your sport.
Its also pretty easy to see how it can improve your stability and power as well as helping to prevent injury. All the muscles fire in all the movements just like real life.
ATHLETES WHO USE EMS...
FAT LOSS
EMS training burns more calories than conventional training as well as significantly increasing your metabolism to burn more fat all day every day
And reduces cellulite!
Thanks to the increased local blood circulation and increased Growth Hormone production skin can become firmer, subcutaneous tissue smoother and harmful metabolites cleared from problem areas.
Muscle Toning
With the help of EMS a much higher number of muscle fibres are activated than regular exercise, these fibres increase in efficiency, elasticity and performance.
Muscle Tonng
EMS is a time efficient way of toning your muscles and providing all the other benefits of resistance training without the load on your joints.
Cardio
EMS will improve cardiovascular performance through improved oxygen transport to the working muscles as well as efficiency and stamina of those muscles.
The Cardio Program
EMS at lower frequencies recruits slow twitch muscle fibres, increasing blood flow, clearance of waste products, mitochondrial density and myoglobin concentrations in the muscles.
Injury Rehab
Because there is no load on the joints and muscles can be individually activated EMS is fantastic for working the rest of the body when injured or activating an injured area during recovery.
If you have a current injury then EMS is great for providing just the right amount of stimulation (or none) to that area while allowing you to maintain muscle tone and activation in all the other muscle in the body
Athletic Performance

EMS programming is very adaptable to the goals of the user, development of fast twitch fibres, muscle hypertrophy, muscular power or enhancing kinetic chain activation in movement patterns used in your sport.
Wellness
Clients report feelings of euphoria, tranquillity and a decrease in anxiety. Clients regularly report improved sleep for the 2-3 days after and EMS session
You get a great release of endorphins from exercise but without the associated exhaustion from high intensity resistance of cardiovascular training.
EMS training helps fat loss in 3 ways
Firstly the cardio program burns calories above your base metabolism a significant proportion of which come from oxidation of fat as the whole body is working at the same time while there is plenty of oxygen available to the cells during energy production.
Secondly the muscle toning effects of Whole Body EMS cause and increase in base metabolism so you are burning more fat all the time, even after your EMS session is finished.
Whole Body EMS has a significantly higher calorie expenditure than regular resistance training which will also provide a higher energy consumption in the post exercise window.
With the help of EMS a much higher number of muscle fibres are activated than regular exercise, these fibres increase in efficiency, elasticity and performance.
EMS training activates in the higher band width activates the fast twitch fibres as soon as you start exercising, a feat normally achieved only at the end of very intense weight training exercises.
In the lower band width the slow twitch fibres are activated with far more efficiency than regular weight training which is why EMS is such a time efficient way of toning your muscles and providing all the other benefits of resistance training without the load on your joints.
Whole Body EMS at the lower frequencies preferentially recruits the slow twitch fibres, increasing blood flow, clearance of waste products and increasing mitochondrial density as well as myoglobin concentrations in the muscles. You will also see improved oxygen carrying capacity of the blood through an increased in red blood cells. Due to the increased blood flow to the muscles during WB EMS it will produce improved long term blood supply to the muscles.
