“Twins got shredded on YouTube” isn’t science. Those EMS vs Weights twin videos? Fun. Not randomized. No body-comp scans. Zero published data.
The science that does matter: - RCT (16 wks): WB-EMS ≈ high-intensity lifting for strength & lean mass with ~40 min/wk vs ~80 min/wk. - Meta-analysis (2021): WB-EMS improves strength, lean mass, function in non-athletes.
My protocol: 8–10 ramp sessions, 48–72h spacing, log impulse + RPE, pair light plyo for jump carryover.
