German Kickboxing World Champion Marie Lang Tests Bodify EMS: An Athlete's Impressions

The EMS system from Bodify has been used in sports contexts for many years and targets a broad audience: from individuals looking to integrate movement flexibly into daily life to active athletes with structured training routines.

Professional kickboxer Marie Lang also tested the application. As a long-time competitive athlete, she is familiar with various training methods and is interested in exploring different approaches to muscle stimulation. In short: she wants to find out what EMS is all about.

In her testimonial, Marie Lang shares her personal approach to using Bodify EMS and provides insight into how she experienced the process and intensity of the training.

Whether at a studio or at home – for many, EMS is a supplementary part of an active lifestyle. In this article, you’ll learn about Marie Lang’s first impressions when using the Bodify EMS system.

First impressions with the EMS trainers

Together with another tester, Marie Lang begins her first trial session with our EMS trainers. She starts with the Bodify arm trainer, which uses electrical impulses to activate arm muscles.

Although Marie Lang is already familiar with a wide range of training methods as a kickboxer, she finds the sensation during use new and unfamiliar at first.
This first impression shows that even experienced athletes enter new territory with EMS applications – regardless of their training level.

In the test: Marie Lang tries the Bodify ab trainer

For her next test, Marie Lang chooses the Bodify ab trainer. During the recommended 25-minute session, she becomes familiar with the impulses in the abdominal area. As recommended, she starts with a low intensity level and gets used to the sensation of electrical stimulation.

This applies to everyone trying EMS training: Start with a low setting and gradually increase. Intensity can be adjusted step by step. Always choose the level that feels comfortable to you.
Marie Lang particularly notes how noticeable the muscle activation is. She emphasizes that it can’t be compared to simply relaxing – far from it.

Her test partner also shares his impressions: He especially highlights the ease of use of the devices. From his perspective, the glute trainer is an interesting addition to his fitness routine – particularly since he usually focuses on other muscle groups at the gym.

This allows muscle groups that often get less attention in regular training to be included in the routine as well. 

A new training impulse for Marie Lang?

Right from the first session, it’s clear that the intensity of Bodify’s EMS impulses is noticeable even at lower levels – even for a seasoned athlete like Marie Lang.

She consciously starts with a lower intensity and gradually eases into the new stimulation. She finds it striking that the 25-minute session leaves a clear impact afterwards.

Over the following weeks, Marie Lang continues testing the Bodify system. For her, EMS training provides a new training stimulus that can be easily combined with her existing routines. 

Conclusion: Starting EMS doesn’t depend on fitness level

The test with world kickboxing champion Marie Lang shows that Bodify EMS can be used regardless of your personal fitness level – whether in professional sports or as a complement to daily movement. Getting started begins for everyone with the basic intensity levels.

The impulse strength can be individually adjusted, giving you the freedom to ease into the training at your own pace.
