Before I get into some personal experience, lets first cover some basics.

Ever held a lunge inPilatesbut failed to feel it in your glutes?

I hit a point in my training where I was feeling super disconnected from my body, DeLay says.

Once the muscles were activated, theyd continue to move through basic exercises, and the results were massive.

Once we reached a self-proclaimed 7 out of 10 intensity level, it was finally time to exercise.

The 20-minute workout flew by, and my cold, wet vest heated up quickly.

While the moves themselves were relatively basic, the sensation that came with them was next-level.

The tingly sensation creates an additional resistance, making it all the more challenging.

My core stayed engaged the entire time.

For the rest of the week whether I was doingyoga, Pilates, or walking around the block.

I was hyper-aware of the muscles making my movement happen.

Its recommended to do no more than two or three EMS workouts per week to give your musclesoptimal recoverytime.

Personally, I see it more as an occasional addition to a balanced fitness routine.

For now, its as if youre a little bird in this EMS vest nest.

Either way, feeling the burn hits differently now.
