Imagine a workout so efficient it’s used by astronauts in space and elite athletes on Earth. Welcome to EMS (Electrical Muscle Stimulation) — a fitness method trusted by NASA and top sports leagues like the German Bundesliga.
At Blegend Gym in Dubai, we bring this science-backed technology to you, whether you’re a professional fighter, fitness enthusiast, or a busy professional.
Let’s break down why some of the smartest organizations in the world rely on EMS — and why you should, too.
Why Does NASA Use EMS?
In space, gravity disappears — and so does the natural resistance that keeps muscles and bones strong. Astronauts can lose up to 20% of muscle mass in just 5–11 days in space!
To fight this, NASA uses neuromuscular electrical stimulation as part of astronaut fitness protocols.

Benefits of EMS in Space:
- Preserves muscle and bone mass
- Activates fast- and slow-twitch fibers without weights
- Supports blood circulation in zero-gravity environments
- Helps prevent long-term neuromuscular degeneration
💡 Interesting Fact: NASA even developed portable EMS suits to simulate gravity resistance during spacewalk recovery.
Why Does the Bundesliga Use EMS?
The Bundesliga, Germany’s top-tier football league, is known for its data-driven performance systems. Teams like Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund integrate EMS into their players’ routines for:
- Speed development
- Injury prevention
- Rehabilitation
- Core strengthening
🔗 Study: EMS in Football Performance – European Journal of Applied Physiology
📊 A 2005 study showed that 6 weeks of EMS training led to a 30% increase in strength output in elite football players.
What Makes EMS So Effective?
EMS stimulates 90% of your muscle fibers using controlled electrical impulses. Unlike conventional training, which relies on voluntary muscle contraction, EMS:
- Recruits deep stabilizer muscles
- Triggers both fast-twitch (power) and slow-twitch (endurance) fibers
- Activates muscles evenly and symmetrically
- Avoids stress on joints and tendons
🔥 At Blegend Gym, EMS training mimics elite athlete protocols, helping you train harder, smarter, and safer.
Who Else Uses EMS?
- UFC Fighters (e.g., Georges St-Pierre) use EMS for explosive strength & core training
- Cristiano Ronaldo has been seen using home EMS recovery systems
- Hollywood Actors (e.g., Tom Holland, Jamie Foxx) use EMS to prep for high-impact roles
- Rehabilitation clinics across Europe and the US implement EMS for post-injury recovery
EMS Training Results — The Numbers Don’t Lie
| Group | EMS Benefit | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| NASA Astronauts | 20% less muscle atrophy | 14 days |
| Bundesliga Athletes | +30% strength in quadriceps | 6 weeks |
| General Population | -4 cm waist reduction, +10% strength | 8 sessions |
Why You Should Care
You don’t have to be an astronaut or pro footballer to use EMS. If you:
✅ Want to train efficiently in 20 minutes
✅ Need to recover from injury or joint pain
✅ Aim to build power and lose fat without overtraining
✅ Love science-backed training methods
Then EMS is for you.
