After an EMS session at Feel Electric it’s important to do some stretches. Stretching out parts of your body like the legs, back, neck, arms, and hips boosts your mobility and flexibility while also reducing the risk of injury. Post EMS training stretches also prevent excessive muscle pain like DOMs (delayed-onset muscle soreness). As you build up lactic acid in your muscles during EMS training stretching your muscles after each session helps release that lactic acid, improving the blood circulation to your muscles. Those stretches can be the difference then in recovering quicker, increased flexibility, and feeling less muscle soreness after your EMS session. Here is a useful list of 8 Stretches to Help You Recover after EMS Training so you avoid the DOMs!
If just one 20-minute EMS session a week at Feel Electric studios equals a 2-hour HIIT session, what are you waiting for? There’s only one way to feel the true power of EMS training and that’s to try it for yourself! Book a Free EMS Trial Online to Tone, Firm and Lose Weight with EMS Training.
You use your hamstrings in your EMS training when performing squats and other leg movements so it’s a key stretch after your session at Feel Electric:
Stretching your quads is important after an EMS workout as the stretch activates the muscles, stimulates blood flow, and can increase your range of motion and flexibility. And that’s just what you want for your next EMS session!
When you exercise your shoulders, you break down muscle to build it up bigger and stronger. Your individual muscle fibres are left shorter and tenser. Stretching lengthens those muscle fibres giving you more flexibility and a greater range of motion.
This EMS training stretch targets the piriformis muscle that runs from the base of your spine to your thigh bone and affects the movement of your hips, back, legs, and buttocks. These piriformis muscle stretches after your EMS session help release pressure on the sciatic nerve.
Your triceps are used for elbow extension and to stabilize your shoulder. After an EMS training session, triceps stretches can improve flexibility, lengthen your muscles, prevent injury, and increase your range of motion.
Stretching your lower back muscles after EMS training can help prevent muscle soreness and back injury as well as improving your range of motion and flexibility.
Trying this lumbar stretch once you’ve finished your EMS session will really help with back muscle soreness.
Our final EMS training stretch is for your spine. Stretching your spine will help you stay more flexible and toned while reducing the chance of injury after exercising.
