"I would have preferred a field report," writes Galaxus user Patric1975 about the new EMS suit from Fortis. And I now have a problem. The solution is identical twins.

There are products in our range that are easy to test and evaluate. Hammocks, for example. You lie in it and enjoy the day. That's it. And then there are products like the EMS suit from Fortis. This is a suit that stimulates the muscles with electricity.

I read Muscle Simulator first... I would have liked an experience report better:)

Experience report? No problem

So I grabbed one of these suits and did a short trial training session with the manufacturer. A sweaty but thoroughly positive experience.

A meaningful self-experiment? Problem!

Now it's your turn. We are looking for a fitness training challenge:

  • identical twins
  • beginning of 20
  • male or female
  • same level of training or fitness

Test EMS training

Write us why you are the right twins for this test.

The competition has ended.

Apply for the challenge by 21 June 2020. The three-month training phase begins after the summer holidays in August. You will receive a complete body analysis and a detailed training plan from specialised physiotherapists in advance. One twin trains with a suit, one without. The aim is to build muscle while reducing body fat. And we will also come up with a nice prize for the winner.

Muscle building, fat reduction and identical twins. These are the ingredients of a challenge that's really something. Don't want to miss it? Then follow my author profile here.
