Leg biceps training with electrical muscle stimulation (EMS)
EMS devices and electrodes recommendations
EMS training for leg biceps
The leg biceps is the counterpart muscle to the quadriceps. Together with other muscle groups, the leg flexor is responsible for bending the leg. Our modern lifestyle leaves little time for exercise. This causes the leg flexor to shorten. In most cases, the leg biceps are neglected during training, even in comparison to the anterior thigh muscles. With EMS training, you can train your muscles specifically and eliminate muscular imbalance.
How to place muscle stimulator pads to train your leg biceps
Here you can see an example of how the 10x5 cm pads can be applied during EMS training of the leg biceps.
In the video you can see how to place the pads correctly for the leg curl and which programs of the EMS machine we recommend for strength training, endurance training and for building muscle mass. We recommend the 12 x 7 cm pads or the 10x5 cm pads for use.

Exercise for the Workout of the Femoral Biceps
Beginners: Squats without EMS
- Stand with your feet slightly wider than your hips
- Your toes should be pointed slightly outward
- Look straight ahead and keep that during the exercise, don't look at the floor
- Put your arms straight out in front of you. They should be parallel to the ground
- Squat down until your hip joint is lower than your knees. Your knees should be in a line to your feet
- Stand back up from your squat
- Repeat for several times
Advanced: Squats with EMS
- Place the electrode pads on your femoral biceps as shown
- Select the recommended program from your muscle stimulator
- Stand with your feet slightly wider than your hips
- Your toes should be pointed slightly outward
- Look straight ahead and keep that during the exercise, don't look at the floor
- Put your arms straight out in front of you. They should be parallel to the ground
- Squat down until your hip joint is lower than your knees. Your knees should be in a line to your feet
- Stand back up from your squat
- Repeat for several times
Please note:
The current strength should be set so that the intended muscle contracts significantly without feeling pain.
Before your workout you should warm up the muscles to prepare them for the upcoming exercise load. Our EMS TENS combo machine offers pre-installed warm-up-programs, which automatically start right before the actual training program. Therefore you can train very relaxed.
