One-on-one EMS training with a certified coach. A suit that activates up to 90% of your muscle fibers in a single 20-minute session.
I work out… but nothing is really changing.
If you're putting in effort but not seeing strength or tone improve, your muscles may not be fully activating. EMS recruits up to 90% of your muscle fibers — real progress in weeks, not months.
I don't have time for long workouts.
An hour at the gym isn't realistic. EMS gives you the impact of a full workout in 20 minutes, twice a week. No wasted time, no guesswork.
My joints can't handle what they used to.
High-impact workouts leave you sore — or injured. EMS is low-impact and joint-friendly, building strength while protecting knees, hips, and back.
My body doesn't respond like it used to.
Metabolism slows, posture suffers, stubborn areas stop responding. EMS rebuilds tone, calorie burn, and core strength.
Paired electrodes reach fibers conventional pressing leaves behind.
Continuous activation for all 20 minutes. Every movement becomes a core exercise.
The body's largest muscle group, fully recruited without spinal loading.
Posture muscles most people can't isolate, activated directly.
Balanced stimulation synchronized with your movement.
Slow- and fast-twitch fibers recruited together, without loading the knees.
EMS has been studied in peer-reviewed medical journals for over a decade. Here's what the research says, in plain English.
EMS activates deep and surface muscle fibers at the same time — far more than conventional lifting alone.

Read the study →Studies on elite rugby players showed measurable strength and power gains from EMS training.
Read the study →Not a random workout — a progression. Two 20-minute sessions a week, and every phase builds on the last.
Your coach fits the suit and calibrates all 12 zones to your body. Twenty minutes later you've felt muscles you forgot you had. Bring nothing — everything is provided.
The foundation phase. Your body acclimates to EMS while body shaping and toning begin. Your coach sets your baseline strength test.
The metabolic phase. Cardio burn layers on top of EMS resistance. This is where clothes start fitting differently.
Maximum intensity, maximum definition. Progressive strength work with your coach pushing the zones you've earned.
Strength test against your baseline. Members like John have lost 20 lbs in 24 sessions on exactly this protocol. P20 Recovery programs included throughout.
Fifteen certified EMS coaches across two studios, led by the family that brought Personal20 to Virginia.
