With obesity rates at over 30 percent of the adults in Illinois, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend a healthy and active life, with healthy, nutritional food, and at least 30 minutes of physical activity each day.

However, not many of us have the necessary time to get our for a run or a walk in the park for 30 minutes, or to hit the gym 6-7 days a week, and the results are rising rates of obesity, due to too much stress, working extended hours or not having time for meal prep.

We’ve all been in one of these situations at one point in our life, and no matter how much we tried to get back to an ideal weight or simply live a healthier life, we found ourselves dragged back by one or another aspect of our lives.

At Body Time Chicago we do take all aspects of your life into consideration when we design a plan for you to become healthier, to go through a transformation that will not only change your whole body, but will also motivate you to stick to your good habits.

We all know any type of physical activity, from a workout in the gym, to a brisk walk on Lake Shore Drive, yoga or martial arts, will make your mind and body feel better.

During a workout, the brain sends electrical signals to the muscles that respond with a voluntary contraction.

But since not everyone has the necessary time to spend in the gym, in order to get the muscles stimulated as often as they should be, technology progress found a way of helping them.

The Body Time method revolves around Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) training.

This highly innovative form of muscle stimulation technology has been successfully tested and proven in astronaut training, physical therapy and sports medicine.

The use of EMS for fitness training has been validated by multiple university studies in the U.S. and Europe.

These studies concluded that EMS training is highly effective in providing measurable fitness results.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation immediately gets to work on low-lying muscle fibers, and this is what makes EMS training particularly efficient.

Regardless of whether you want to bulk up those muscles or hit your weight loss goals, EMS training can be tailored to bring fast, visible results to a wide range of fitness needs.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) is a version of the gym of the future, it saves time and it works its wonders on the human body, more than any other type of fitness program out there.

During your EMS training, your muscles are not only stimulated by your brain signals. EMS sends its own involuntary clean stimulations to the muscle fibers.

Using EMS, your trainer has the ability to adjust the stimulation for each muscle group, meaning that the effort that you put into your regular gym workout will be enhanced, without draining your of your resistance. This will allow a more focused workout, with better results.

Since EMS can target specific muscle groups, if you have a problem with your posture, that could be fixed too. Let’s say you spend too many hours a day at the computer or you simple cannot keep your back straight when you walk.

EMS can help you fix these issues by targeting and making your spine muscles stronger, to improve your posture, while also giving you a better lumbar support.

With EMS technology, you do not have to spend hours in the gym each week, you will not need several days to be able to walk again after your leg-day workout, you will burn more calories, which in return will help with a faster weight loss and will also help increase your anaerobic endurance and muscle strength.

If you are ready for a total body transformation that does not involve spending most of your time trapped in a gym, or forcing yourself to eat under 1000 calories each day, EMS training is the right choice for you.

Of course that eating a healthy diet is important to maintain the results of your training, but it will not involve starving yourself to lose the extra pounds faster. The EMS workouts will help you with loosing the weight faster than your regular workouts because of the special stimulation of muscle fiber.

These impulses will make your muscles work more and become stronger faster, and while your muscular mass grows, your fat deposits and your weight drop, ensuring your way toward a total body transformation, and a healthier you.

The majority of these who need to get into the gym and loose some extra pounds, keep a healthy diet and a healthy life-style in general, find it difficult to stick to their plans for as long as they need to for the results to start showing.

Many do not have the required patience and perseverance, and for these people, a good solution in the gym, is to hire a personal trainer.
