If you’re reading this, you’re probably considering booking your first EMS session — and that’s a smart move. Whether you want to lose fat, tone up, or build strength without joint strain, EMS offers a fast, efficient, and powerful solution.
At BODY TIME, we specialize in private and partner EMS sessions designed to help you reach your goals in just 20 minutes per week. But before you jump in, you probably want to know what actually happens in your first EMS session.
Here’s a complete breakdown of what to expect, what to bring, and why EMS is one of the safest and most advanced fitness experiences in the world.
1. Your Session Starts with a Personalized Consultation
Your first EMS session begins with a lifestyle and goal assessment. One of our certified trainers will sit down with you to discuss:
- Your current activity level
- Fitness goals (fat loss, muscle gain, recovery, etc.)
- Any injuries or mobility concerns
- Your preferred training frequency and availability
This helps us design a fully personalized EMS training plan that’s safe, effective, and aligned with your needs.
2. No Gear Needed — We Provide Everything
You don’t need to bring anything to your first session — no special clothing, no shoes, not even a water bottle or towel.
At BODY TIME, we provide:
- EMS suit and undergarments
- Towels
- Shower facilities
- All necessary equipment
Just show up — and we’ll handle the rest.
3. You’ll Be Fitted with the EMS Suit (Using Miha BodyTec)
We use Miha BodyTec — the latest and most trusted EMS technology, known for:
- Medical certification
- Adjustable impulse intensity
- Superior comfort and durability
Our trainer will help you put on the EMS suit, ensure proper contact points, and explain how the low-frequency impulseswill work during your workout.
4. 20 Minutes of Full-Body EMS Training
After the consultation and setup, it’s time to train.
The EMS workout consists of:
- A warm-up (light body movements)
- 20 minutes of customized exercises paired with EMS impulses
- Each cycle includes 4 seconds of contraction and 4 seconds of relaxation
Despite the short duration, this session will activate up to 98% of your muscles — delivering the equivalent of a 90-minute gym workout.
5. It Doesn’t Hurt — Just Feels New
Worried about discomfort? Don’t be. EMS is safe, doesn’t hurt, and the sensation is often described as a tingling or deep vibration.
EMS training is low impact and pain-free, even for those with injuries or sensitive joints. Want to learn more about safety? See Is EMS Safe and Does It Hurt?
6. You’ll Feel the Effects Right Away
After your first EMS session, you may experience:
- Increased circulation
- Muscle activation and tightness
- A natural endorphin boost
- Mild soreness similar to a strength workout
Most clients feel stronger, energized, and tighter immediately — and see visible results after 4 sessions or less. Real people, real Client Testimonials.
7. Your Journey Can Begin from Anywhere
Once you complete your trial, you can continue your EMS journey in multiple ways:
- Weekly sessions at our BODY TIME studios
- In-home training with our mobile team
- Self-guided training with iBody, our Smart EMS Home Training System
- Or turn EMS into a career with BODY TIME X, offering franchise, business, and personal trainer solutions
