A lot of us want to hit the gym and exercise, or at the very least give it a thought. Whether we followed through or meant it is a whole other question. Sometimes not following through with a workout session has to do with other priorities like work taking precedence. However, the fact still remains that a good and healthy workout is fundamental to our well-being and health.<\/p>

For those with little time to spare but still keen on keeping fit, this is where the newly-opened concept studio PowerLounge, and their wireless EMS suit, developed and made by Vision Body, comes in.<\/p>

For the uninitiated, EMS refers to Electro Muscular Stimulation. EMS training involves sending electrical impulse currents to your body to train the different muscle groups by contracting it and reaching far deeper into the muscle tissues. The technology itself is safe and has traditionally been used by physiotherapists as a rehabilitative tool. Also the intensity of the impulses can be adjusted according to your level of comfort.<\/p>

How does it work?<\/span> <\/h2>

The EMS bodysuit comes with wireless technology fitted in that allows you to do a 20-minute workout with the effects of a traditional intensive regimen. In sum, you get more with less time spent.<\/p>

Studies by the German Sports University Cologne have also shown that a 20-minute EMS training session is equivalent to a 2.5 \u2013 3 hour workout at the gym and up to 18 times more effective. Why EMS training is more effective is because a majority of your muscles can be activated with each contraction as compared to a conventional workout.<\/p>

The traditional version of the EMS suit was slightly more clunky due to external wires that had to be connected to a machine to send the electrical impulses. The updated version offered at PowerLounge is a wireless option that makes it more hassle-free. The bodysuit fits snugly and feels comfortable, which is key as the suit offers limitless possibilities that were previously unavailable.<\/p>

What workout to try?<\/span> <\/h2>

Take for example the PowerStrength workout offered at PowerLounge. It combines plyometrics and weight training to effectively target all major muscle groups to improve overall muscle strength. The involuntary stimulation of muscles that the suit provides allows for a more efficient workout that gets results quickly due to the effective targeting of muscles and allows you to build strength and endurance rapidly.<\/p>

If you\u2019re looking to lose weight, PowerLounge offers a PowerCardio workout regimen that when combined with the EMS suit, improves resistance artificially which greatly adds up to the overall burn and accelerates the whole process forward a great deal.<\/p>

Each of these and the other workouts, like PowerBoxing, PowerCycle and PowerPump, utilises the suit to rapidly improve your overall gains. On top of this, PowerLounge offers dedicated trainers that will be able to choose the right workout, which will aid you in making the right fitness choices.<\/p>

Membership is time-based, a further incentive to the work-weary amongst us. Despite it all, even if you\u2019re a busy executive, or someone looking to lose a few pounds, an athlete recovering from an injury or just want to start leading a fit and healthy lifestyle, you cannot deny the overall net gain of\u00a0this\u00a025-30 minute workout that will give you the results of a 2-3 hour regimen in a traditional gym.<\/p>

So who\u2019s up for a workout?<\/p>
