What if shocking your muscles with electricity helped them grow and develop faster?

\xa0

What if it could reduce exercise-induced muscle damage and help you recover better from your workouts?

\xa0

What if it could straight up make you stronger?

\xa0

Well, this is why people buy and use electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) machines.

\xa0

They believe they\u2019re an easy and safe way to gain muscle and strength faster and boost post-workout recovery.

\xa0

You might want to believe, too, but you\u2019re skeptical.

\xa0

On one hand, the whole approach sounds pretty scientific, and haven\u2019t we seen various professional athletes hooked up to these machines?

\xa0

Then again, some scientific studies aren\u2019t worth the paper they\u2019re published on and some athletes will beat the drum for anything that brings a paycheck.

\xa0

EMS machines are expensive, too, so there would need to be a considerable payoff to justify the cost.

\xa0

Well, when you take a cold, hard look at the science, here\u2019s what you learn:

\xa0

EMS isn\u2019t silly pseudoscience, but it\u2019s also not as great as the machine manufacturers would have you believe.

\xa0

Yes, it\u2019s safe, but no, it\u2019s not going to dramatically impact muscle growth or recovery.

\xa0

That said, it doesn't mean you shouldn't necessarily give it a go. You should just have the right expectations.

And in this podcast, we\u2019re going to break down what EMS is, how it works, and what science has to say about its effectiveness. Let\u2019s get started.
