Innovative training studio Studiotec offers a unique technology to busy Montrealers looking to increase their fitness levels. Thanks to Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS), its clients can obtain surprising results in as little as 20 minutes. “Our clients don a special suit with electrodes that cover 90 per cent of the body,” explains Amiram Ehrlich, Studiotec’s founder. “Usually, the brain sends muscles signals, but in this case, an external source is responsible for stimulation. Every muscle can thus be contracted.”
Participants in the program, which has been available in Europe for more than a decade, are matched with a certified trainer who leads them through exercises that were developed specifically for the technology, in groups never exceeding three people in order to personalize the workouts as much as possible.
