LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 21, 2022 / The world of exercise has undergone some incredible evolutions over the years. From weightlifting's consistent rise throughout the 20th century to the invasion of high-intensity interval training in the past 20 years, innovative exercising concepts have allowed people to get fitter faster.
Now, Lightning Fit's EMS is smashing barriers to exercise by leveraging FDA-cleared technology to enable recreational and elite athletes to build strength, increase endurance, blast fat, and tone up in record time. And this jolt to the fitness industry has been made possible by the vision of Ivy League-educated entrepreneur Colleen McNutt.
Maximizing Performance by Minimizing Workout Time
A former D1 collegiate athlete, McNutt struggled to maintain her physical abilities after starting a professional career with a Big 4 accounting firm. Determined to find the best possible way to get and stay healthy in the least amount of time, she stumbled upon electro muscle stimulation. It wasn't long before she was certain that it was the key to unlock the door to speedy, more successful training.
The concept behind electro muscle stimulation is based on a function held by the central nervous system: Sending signals to contract muscles. Consider a powerlifter. As the lifter hoists a barbell, the lifter's brain tells the muscles to respond. As motions are repeated, the muscles contract and release accordingly. This movement encourages the muscles to develop, leading to improved definition and power.
Electro muscle stimulation acts like a secondary central nervous system as it sends gentle yet firm electrical pulses through the skin into muscles. The muscles respond to the external stimuli just as they would to internal prompts. However, electro muscle stimulation has the advantage of accelerating the impulses, leading muscles to contract at triple the rate they normally would. Consequently, muscles work three times as hard as they would without electro muscle stimulation.
Bringing Electro Muscle Stimulation to an Eager Public
McNutt's personal research on and experience with electro muscle stimulation led her to found Lightning Fit, a unique, in-person fitness experience that promises incredible results in under 30 minutes. The Lightning Fit EMS workout suit stimulates and activates over 200 muscles simultaneously. On average, exercisers see a difference in their bodies in less time than with other workout programs-usually, noticeable changes take about 10 sessions. These changes are prompted not just by an intense burn of up to 1000 calories per 20-minute workout but a superior after-exercise metabolic increase for about 48 hours.
The conduit to getting Lightning Fit's EMS to exercisers is through a carefully adjusted body suit equipped with electro muscle stimulation technology. The suit sends signals to muscles and muscle groups, initiating involuntary contractions while the exerciser goes through a series of trainer-led motions. Most exercisers only need two to three Lighting Fit EMS private or semi-private sessions weekly to move closer to achieving their fitness goals.
Presenting Alternatives to In-Studio Lightning Fit Training
Though Lightning Fit's headquarters currently operates out of Orange County, California, the company plans to expand and hire regional trainers in other states including Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, New York, Colorado, and Texas. By scaling operations nationwide, McNutt hopes to deliver more opportunities for interested people to undergo Lightning Fit's EMS themselves.
Those who appreciate Lightning Fit's philosophy but who are unable to come to a studio have two options. First, Lightning Fit will send mobile units to select communities. Mobile trainers have the knowledge and equipment to lead offsite Lightning Fit sessions that mimic those held in the studio setting.
The second option? Pre-order a Lightning Fit Bolt suit. The Bolt suit allows for at-home use of Lightning Fit's EMS. Bolt owners can download a special app and log into their account to access training videos anytime that works in their busy schedules. According to Lightning Fit, Bolt suits will make their way into the marketplace by August 2022.
Getting Exercise Gains Without Giving up Precious "Me Time"
Even people who have shaved their commutes by working from home often complain that exercise eats up too much time. Consequently, they put themselves at risk of gaining weight, losing stamina, and feeling uncomfortable about their appearances. Lightning Fit overcomes the "I don't have time" objection to living a fitter lifestyle. What other exercise affords such lasting caloric burn in under 30 minutes?
Like all industries, exercise is undergoing rapid shifts thanks to creative uses of scientifically reviewed and accepted technologies. Lightning Fit is poised to become a long-time leader in the space as it removes common obstacles to working out while providing unparalleled outcomes.
