📰 The Pulse

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) continues gaining traction.

Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), also known as electrical muscle stimulation (EMS), works by using electrical currents to trigger muscle contractions, mimicking the natural signals sent by the brain.

While NMES has long been used in rehabilitation and recovery settings. A new study suggests its benefits may extend beyond therapy and into the gym.

The key takeaway? Participants who combined NMES with resistance training saw greater muscle growth and strength gains compared to those who trained without electrical stimulation. (More)
