07 Dec Surprise! With Emsculpt You Don’t Have to Lift Weights Multiple Times Per Week for Results
Anyone who has tried to get gains or simply get a little toned knows how much work it takes. Parson Skin Center can help you achieve these things with Emsculpt, a unique non-invasive procedure that really works to build targeted muscle in zero-effort 30-minute sessions. Phoenix Emsculpt lets you sculpt, tone, and build muscle only in the areas that you want without lifting a finger or breaking a sweat. It works the exact same way as lifting weights or TRX; by contracting muscles in order to force them into controlled micro-injuries.
Building muscles requires tiny injuries. The muscles “see” that they need to get bigger and stronger so that they can withstand a similar force in the future. In turn, they get fed by protein and increase in size (and definition) as they repair. This is not the same thing as actually fraying or seriously tearing muscles. The latter is an injured muscle, and that will keep you away from the gym for weeks or even months. A controlled micro-tear isn’t painful, but usually causes soreness.
So, what’s the Emsculpt difference? It turns out that your muscles are going to respond to these tiny tears no matter what causes them. There’s actually no reason to put in work at the gym if you just want to see fantastic results.
Muscular Contractions for Gains
The kind of contractions that muscles need to undergo in order to get bigger or toned are called supramaximal contractions. In a normal gym routine, this is achieved by doing something like lifting weights. Emsculpt is an external device that forces these muscles into 20,000 supramaximal contractions in just 30 minutes. It also targets just the muscles you want to tone, whereas a gym workout is going to require engaging a lot of nearby accessory muscles in order to do the exercises correctly.
The Emsculpt ability to target muscles is just one aspect of the technology that makes it so special. For those who want to achieve certain looks, like a bigger booty without bigger thighs, only Emsculpt can make this happen. You can target all of the most desirable muscles with Emsculpt like the glutes and biceps, isolating them with ease. This simply isn’t feasible with a traditional workout.
The Phoenix Emsculpt Difference
Unlike a gym regimen, most people only require 4 – 6 Emsculpt sessions spaced a week or more apart to get their desired results. After these foundational sessions, most clients benefit from maintenance sessions every six months or so. Since Emsculpt allows for an incredible 20,000 contractions per site each session compared to a gym workout that might reach into the hundreds of reps, you certainly don’t need to do it as much!
Your muscles are going to think they just undertook 20,000 lunges, crunches, or bicep curls after an Emsculpt session and will respond accordingly. You can help maximize your results by consuming at least 20 grams of protein right after your Emsculpt sessions. Muscles need protein in order to heal and grow. You can also expect to be sore the days following Emsculpt, because your body really did perform 20,000 contractions. BCAAs before, during, and after Emsculpt can help reduce this soreness known as DOMS.
Can You Skip the Gym for Good?
Emsculpt is not a replacement for a healthy, active lifestyle, but rather a complement to it. Working out is still important, but Emsculpt can replace some aspects of your regimen so you can focus on other facets. For example, you’ll be able to lighten up your lifting routine in favor of a little more yoga or Pilates thanks to Emsculpt. Keep in mind that since Emsculpt is really a muscle-target master, you’ll still want to incorporate some strength training into your routine in order to keep those smaller accessory muscles healthy.
Emsculpt is a fantastic way to catch up after weeks of no gym access or take your results to the next level. Ready to get your Emsculpt Phoenix session booked? Call Parson Skin Center today at (480) 282-8386.
