EMS training for the triceps

Woman trains her triceps on a cable pull, in addition to the EMS device

The triceps are the big opponent of the biceps. Many beginners neglect tricep training and focus more on the bicep muscle. The muscle volume of a fully developed triceps makes up about two thirds of the entire upper arm musculature. The main function of the triceps is to extend the arm. With an EMS device, you can strengthen and train your triceps intensively.

Please note when using EMS:

The intensity should be set so that the intended muscle contracts significantly without causing you to feel pain.

Before training, you should warm up your muscles to prepare them for the upcoming exertion. Our EMS TENS combination device STIM-PRO X9 has pre-installed warm-up programs that start automatically before the actual training programs. So you can carry out your training completely relaxed.
