Have we found the Holy Grail of weight loss?

Weight loss injections like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro have become the latest fitness craze. These GPL-1 agonists work by suppressing appetite, making it easier for users to maintain a calorie deficit and lose weight without the need for extreme dieting. However, while they are highly effective for fat loss, they come at a significant cost: muscle loss.

Research shows that nearly 40% of the weight lost through these jabs is muscle mass. This is a major concern because muscle is essential for overall health, mobility, and metabolism. If users of these injections continue to shed muscle at this rate, we may be trading an obesity crisis for a sarcopenia crisis—a future where people are thinner but weaker, slower, and more prone to injury and mobility issues.

The Solution: EMS Training

Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) training is a revolutionary tool that can help counteract the muscle loss caused by weight loss injections. Unlike traditional workouts, EMS training stimulates deep muscle contractions using electrical impulses, engaging nearly 90% of muscle fibers in a session. It is particularly effective for those who struggle with conventional strength training due to fatigue, time constraints, or a lack of experience in the gym.

Here’s why EMS training is a game-changer for those using weight loss injections:

• Muscle Retention: EMS workouts ensure that muscles remain active and stimulated even when users are consuming fewer calories, preventing the rapid muscle atrophy seen in those relying solely on the jabs.

• Efficiency: A 20-minute EMS session is equivalent to several hours of conventional strength training, making it ideal for individuals who want results without spending hours in the gym.

• Low Impact: Many people on weight loss injections find it difficult to engage in high-intensity exercise due to lower energy levels. EMS provides an effective alternative without excessive strain on the joints and body.

• Fat Loss Optimization: Studies show that combining EMS with a weight loss plan improves body composition by promoting fat loss while preserving lean muscle mass.

Real-World Success

At Feel Electric, we’ve seen firsthand how EMS can make a difference. One of our clients, who starter their journey at 101kg, has been using Mounjaro alongside EMS training. Over time, they have lost 14.3kg—13.1kg of which was pure body fat. That means only 1.2kg of  their weight loss came from muscle, That’s only 8% of the total weight lost, compared to 40% of the weight lost by individuals on the jabs who do not accompany it with EMS training.

This is a prime example of how EMS training can help users of weight loss jabs maintain strength, mobility, and long-term health while achieving their weight loss goals.

Perhaps the most significant change is this individual’s Visceral Fat level. Visceral fat is the fat that surrounds your internal organs, and is different from the fat that is usually “visible” ie subcutaneous fat that hangs from the body and can be seen and felt. Visceral fat is an invisible health risk, while having a certain level of it is beneficial to protect the organs, too much can cause health risks. A healthy visceral fat level is in the range of 5-10 so anything above that can be a cause from concern, but this member is making incredible progress towards a healthier body by reducing their Visceral Fat from level 25 to level 20:

While this member is still on their health journey, she is making incredible progress, and we are so proud to be helping to support her.

The final data point I would like to share is this one of the segmental analysis of this member’s body. You can see exactly where the weight that has been lost has come from and see noticeable improvements in key areas that support all the data I’ve shown previously:


The results of this scan show the excess in percentage of fat in the body. And the segmental circumference shows the exact measurements at the widest point on the circumference of the body:

The results are plain as day. This member has lost fat in each of the areas, a dramatic amount of it. And their segmental circumference shows it! This member will be looking, and feeling, slimmer and fitter and, because EMS training has helped her retain her muscle mass, she’ll be feeling stronger and quicker as well! 

The Future of Fitness is Here

The popularity of weight loss jabs isn’t going away. The fitness industry needs to evolve and adapt by offering solutions that preserve health and functionality. EMS training is one of the best tools available to counteract the side effects of these injections, providing an effective, time-efficient, and science-backed way to retain muscle while shedding unwanted fat.
