    Recovering after surgery

    With your surgeon’s clearance, EMS keeps muscle on while you cannot lift, and rebuilds it after.

    On a GLP‑1 medication

    Losing weight fast can mean losing muscle. Twenty minutes, once or twice a week, is the strength work doctors recommend, scaled to how you feel that day.

    Keeping your muscle on a GLP-1

Sound familiar?

Here is why EMS works when your old routine stopped working.

  1. 01

    “I work out, but nothing is really changing.”

    Normal workouts reach only the muscle fibers you can contract on purpose. An EMS suit activates up to 90% of them, so every rep does more.

    Harisha: plank 1:50 to 4:00
  2. 02

    “I don’t have time for long workouts anymore.”

    A 20-minute EMS session, once or twice a week, with suit, clothes and coaching provided. In and out in about 35 minutes.

    Chad and Erica: marathon-ready on two sessions a week
  3. 03

    “My joints can’t handle what they used to.”

    The suit is the resistance, not a barbell. Light standing movements, intensity set muscle group by muscle group, so clients with knee and back pain train here every week.

    Dr. Rosemary: knee pain to stronger movement
  4. 04

    “My body doesn’t look or feel like it used to.”

    After 40, muscle and metabolism decline unless you load them. EMS rebuilds core strength, muscle tone and posture in 20 minutes, twice a week.

Questions people ask first.

All 19 questions and answers

01What is EMS training?

EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) training is a 20-minute, coach-guided workout in a suit with electrodes over the major muscle groups. Gentle impulses make your muscles contract while you do simple, low-impact movements, activating up to 90% of your muscle fibers. Personal20 (P20) has offered whole-body EMS in Herndon since 2017 and in Tysons since 2021.

02Who should not do EMS training?

People with heart disease, pacemakers or other implanted electrical devices, women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, and people with a predisposition to epileptic seizures or fitting should not do EMS. If you have another medical condition, ask your doctor first and tell your trainer.

03How soon will I see results?

Most clients feel stronger within the first few sessions and see measurable strength gains by session 8. Harisha improved lower-body strength by 22.5% after 8 sessions and more than doubled his plank hold by session 24. P20 tracks weight, waist and a strength test so you can see your own numbers.

04How much does P20 cost?

A trial session is $35. Programs start at $262.99 for one session a week and $409.99 for two sessions a week. The EMS suit, undergarments and one-on-one coaching are included; there is no equipment to buy and no gym membership required.

05Do I need to be a member of Onelife Fitness or Worldgate Athletic Club?

No. P20 Tysons is inside Onelife Fitness at 8250 Greensboro Dr and P20 Herndon is at the entrance of Worldgate Athletic Club at 13037 Worldgate Dr, but P20 is open to the public and no gym membership is required.
