If you have been at the Nelson Market in Montgomery Square you may have spotted the boutique fitness studio, Bodywave. What you may not know is that indoors a progressive high-tech training is going on. One of the first of its kind in New Zealand since 2017. Electro Muscle Stimulation Training (EMS) is a full-body workout, activating all your core muscles simultaneously. Flower Bradley, owner of Bodywave, is providing proven results with just 20 minutes of EMS training a week. “Helping people achieve their training goals is where the Bodywave team’s passion lies. We are passionate about EMS training because of the results we have all personally experienced. We live busy lives, people are constantly juggling things to fit everything in. To offer an efficient tech-based full body training that only takes 20 minutes is revolutionary. Gains in strength, power, with the ability to train people of all ages, size and fitness abilities is a huge plus.”
Defying age itself, Flower is a proud grandmother working alongside her daughter Ayla, daughter-in-law Micha, and Jessica. “Bodywave EMS training has contributed to me being able to dial back my biological age, I am now stronger than I have ever been, and I am close to hitting 50.”
EMS technology in this training form has been around for roughly twenty years. “We call EMS training at Bodywave, the 'good buzz'. No matter how you are feeling when you arrive, you will always leave feeling better. The one-on-one personal training is personalised, private and we love the fact that EMS not only boosts your body, but also your mind. The training releases endorphins that elevate your mood, reducing stress, and is especially effective to assist in alleviating depression.”
Drawing upon many years of personal training experience the team offer customised programs covering a range of recovery and rehabilitation work. Backed by science, the technology delivers a high-quality muscle contraction within a personalized movement regime. During a 20 minutes session up to 90% of your muscles are activated at the same time. “The effectiveness of EMS is much higher than conventional weight training. We have witnessed toned and leaner bodies, more stability in joints, improvement in posture, muscle balance, core strength, and reduction in back pain. EMS is especially amazing on the glutes. Activating them through EMS not only lifts and shapes the buttocks but increases your power. Everyone that does Bodywave has the 'Bodywave booty.’”
As the most experienced kiwi EMS trainer in New Zealand, Flower is proud of her team’s achievements and still gets a kick out of introducing new people to the EMS experience. For the month of August Bodywave have a two for one deal. Bring a friend along for a free trial. Book online.
