NUZUNA PROFILE
BRUCE LEE INSPIRED ME
CURIOSITY AND A QUEST FOR LEARNING LED TO BOTH JUDO AND EMS
BY GARY GOLTZ
The Atlantic article on What It Means To Be Bruce Lee focuses on Bruce Lee ’ s curiosity and quest for learning . These values are inherent in judo as Jigoro Kano was an educator and incorporated the quest for learning into judo .
In my current role of Vice President of Nuzuna Wellness Centers we actually promote the use of Electro Muscle Stimulation ( EMS ) which Bruce Lee understood back in the early 60 ’ s .

As a kid growing up in Pittsburgh I tended to avoid competitive sports in favor of watching TV shows . When I first saw the Green Hornet series in the Fall of 1966 , Bruce Lee as Kato captured my imagination immediately with his mastery of martial arts . This led to my enrolling in a judo class at our local community center where I met the late Kyu Ha Kim , grand champion of South Korea .
I dreamed of a day I could carry myself with the confidence and poise of Mr . Kim . Today , I hold an 8th degree black belt and run one of the biggest judo programs in the nation .
But I want to focus on how it was really Bruce Lee that inspired me to learn martial arts . Bruce Lee believed martial arts means honestly expressing yourself . He believed judo enables one to express themselves extend their techniques to their own unique style and / or creativity .
What is SUPER-SUIT Exercise ?
Nuzuna ’ s SUPER-SUIT is a wireless wearable technology that incorporates electro muscle stimulation technology . Through 20 pre-placed electrode pads found on the suit , it uses low to midrange frequency impulses to cause muscle contractions directly through the skin . These contractions act as resistance , making each exercise movement three times more efficient . During SUPER-SUIT exercise , up to 90 % of muscle fibers are simultaneously activated ; allowing you to achieve 150 times more muscle contractions than a regular workout . Nuzuna ’ s SUPER-SUIT can be combined with various workout styles , programs , or sports and is suitable for almost anyone . SUPER-SUIT exercise requires little to no gym equipment during exercise , therefore , places less stress on the heart , joints , and tendons . Through artificial intelligence , the SUPER-SUIT can indicate muscle imbalances and help isolate and strengthen weaker muscles leading to an overall stronger body .
Is SUPER-SUIT Exercise Safe , Does It Hurt ?

frightening , but we assure you that SUPER- SUIT exercise is very safe . The current is not strong enough to reach any internal organs . Our bodies are composed of several layers that the current must pass through . The electrical current must pass the skin , fat layer beneath the skin , then to the skeletal muscle , and another thick layer of fat before the internal organs . This thick layer of fat has a significantly high resistance because of its thickness and its high specific resistance , thus the electrical intensity is reduced to zero and doesn ’ t reach the internal organs .
As Charles Laverty , Founder and CEO of Nuzuna , explains , “ The heart runs on electricity .” For some , SUPER-SUIT exercise has resulted in unintentional positive consequences for the user .
SUPER-SUIT exercise is far from a painful sensation , what you can expect is nothing more than your phone vibrating in your pocket . Everything is customized for you ! If you feel the stimulation level is too high , your instructor has the ability to adjust the intensity level for your body type .
