Get the body you want through the intense 20-minute workouts powered by EMS at Impulse Studio

In just a space of a year or so, Ems-centric fitness centre Impulse Studio has expanded its business on a regional scale. From starting out with a branch on Jalan Telawi 3, Impulse Studio now operates five centres in Malaysia and two in Shanghai— an incredible feat considerin­g that when the company first started, its team and trainers had to spend a lot of time educating its customers on what EMS is all about. To the uninitiate­d, EMS stands for electric muscle stimulatio­n which is used to give you an intense workout. But lest you worry about electric shocks, rest assured, EMS is gentle on your joints. The technology has been used for decades by pro-athletes—for physiother­apy, rehabilita­tion and sports treatment. EMS helps you to build muscle, reduce body fat and relieve you of your back problems. Athletes who swear by EMS include Real Madrid’s Karim Benzema and French national rugby player Vincent Clerc. The best part about Impulse is that it only takes about 20 minutes, twice a week, to give you the results equivalent to two or three hours at a regular gym. The workouts are intense but require no weights. There is no need to bring your gym bag because your workout attire—sanitised for your comfort and hygiene—is all provided for, plus there is also a clean shower stall, lockers and amenities such as toiletries, towels and hair dryers provided for you. Plus your workout is done barefoot so there’s no need to buy expensive sport shoes. In an approximat­e time frame of 20 minutes, you will be put through a rigorous and customised HIIT (a combinatio­n of cardio and strength) training with EMSinduced resistance which replaces the use of weights—all designed in alignment with your personal goals and body’s capability. But don’t just take our word for it, as one of their regulars, technology director Manohar Iyer, shares his testimony: “Impulse Studio helped me cut down the flab, build up muscles and tone my body. I’m on my way to my Greek god-like figure, thanks to the dedication and hard work of the Impulse team in bringing positive change to people’s lives. It’s great that Impulse is soon going to India and Australia as well.” There are other testimonia­ls like this from those who have lost weight through the help of Impulse Studio, aside from Manohar.
