TESTIMONIALS area of focus along with supporting areas ,” he explains . For example , for someone recovering from knee surgery , they ’ ll work to strengthen the supporting muscle groups in the quads , hamstrings , abs and glutes . The frequency of the EMS signals are customized to each person ’ s needs and tolerance . Nuzuna ’ s EMS specialists keep in constant communication with the client and the suit to optimize individual treatment . The SUPER-SUIT is an artificial intelligence technology consisting of 20 electrode pads that directly send information to the trainer ’ s tablet . “ Along with the precision , we can set the training mode to be on a basic , endurance , or strength training ,” Blackwell says . “ We can set it geared toward fat burning and even anti-cellulite . If you like to do weight lifting , we can select the strength training mode and stimulate type II muscle fibers that we use primarily during heavy lifting and explosiveness training . The reverse is true as well for endurance training and specifically stimulating type I muscle fibers . So you can be in your rehab and still specifically target for the muscle fibers needed for your primary form of activity . The precision of the SUPER- SUIT is one of its best benefits . It can distinguish between which muscle fibers are being engaged and at what percentages .” Peer-reviewed research papers have confirmed the benefits of EMS for recovery . Among other things , EMS improves recovery time by :
• Increasing circulation and therefore decreasing inflammation
• Improving range of motion
• Offering pain relief and pain management
• Working the muscles without overdoing weights or repetitions
• Promoting tissue healing
Whether you ’ re in your 70s and recovering from a knee replacement or you ’ re a star collegiate athlete eager to get back on the field , Nuzuna ’ s SUPER- SUIT provides customized recovery benefits . One person may be working on comfort and movement for their dayto-day activities , while an athlete may be building up their muscles and range of motion for sport-specific activities . Blackwell was a collegiate cross-country and track and field athlete who regularly used EMS for injury recovery and warm up . “ The SUPER-SUIT is a good quality way to get engagement of up to 90 % of the muscle fibers without the stress and reps of repeated movement , which exacerbate the injury or take a step backward in rehab ,” he says . “ That ’ s going to play a really crucial role in someone ’ s overall recovery . Unless you ’ re getting the appropriate engagement , the body is not going to grow and redevelop that area .” The SUPER-SUIT is effective for a range of injury types whether surgical or soft tissue . For example , soft tissue injuries of the muscles , tendons or ligaments , are areas subject to constant , repeated use . “ For soft-tissue injuries , we use the suit to keep the muscle contraction happening without the risk of further injury by doing weighted contraction or biometric work . The SUPER-SUIT minimizes the safety risks associated with rehab ,” Blackwell says . “ From an athletic perspective or even just quality-of-life perspective , rehab is about maintaining strength through the injured area while helping it heal . We need to prevent deconditioning while also maximizing recovery rates . The SUPER- SUIT engages the muscles and keeps your brain and central nervous system aware

“ I have never experienced the intense total body workout I did when training at Nuzuna . After running through an invigorating chest and back superset session I finished off with an Iron Neck session that was unlike any other I had experienced . My core and neck were engaged to a level I never thought possible . I left feeling rejuvenated and focused ! I will be back for more ! Thanks Nuzuna !”

“ The suit made a huge difference because it ’ s a shorter workout period . Which I like because I don ’ t like working out . Plus , I feel like I sweat because usually when I go to the gym , I don ’ t sweat . I definitely recommend this and I keep talking to all my friends about it and I ’ m getting them all excited .”
you ’ re still using that area and putting your body ’ s resources into making sure it gets repaired . When you use EMS the right way , you can increase recovery while minimizing the deconditioning and strength loss that comes with most injuries .”
