Training with EMS – Experience Reports from Young Mothers

Many users see EMS training as a flexible addition to their daily routine—including a growing number of young mothers. Especially after a break from exercise or when transitioning into new routines, the structured program can serve as helpful guidance.

We followed Anja (30), who shared her impressions of using the Bodify trainers after her postpartum recovery. After giving birth and starting her new life as a mom, she now focuses on a mindful reintroduction to physical activity—step by step, at her own pace.

Her experience highlights how she integrates EMS into her daily life and which aspects are most important to her.

Why EMS training?
 

“After my pregnancy, I focused entirely on my new role as a mother. Regular exercise initially took a back seat,” Anja tells us. Her child was born about a year ago.

“Over time, I decided to find a new balance. I wanted a solution that fits into my day-to-day life. While researching, I discovered EMS and was immediately intrigued. I wanted a concept that’s flexible and easy to integrate into my routine. That’s how I found Bodify and decided to give it a try,” she explains.

Many mothers in this phase place special importance on flexibility, ease of use, and a structured application that requires minimal time investment. In this context, EMS training is often seen as a practical solution.


EMS training from the perspective of a young mother

“After my initial research, I took a deeper look into EMS training,” says Anja. “The idea of targeting muscle groups through electrical impulses sounded really interesting. And especially that it could fit into my daily life as a mom.”

EMS training can help mothers gradually ease back into regular physical activity through its structured application. The focus is often not on performance goals, but rather on how one feels and the desire to reintroduce movement into daily life.

“It was important for me to find joy in movement again and to build my own routine. It’s not about speed or outside expectations—it’s about feeling good again in my daily life.”

For Anja, it’s about intentionally making time for herself—even with limited availability. That’s why many young mothers see training with Bodify as a practical companion in their everyday life.

Time for yourself as a mom—with movement in your own rhythm

“My full attention is naturally on my child. I rarely make it to the gym, so the EMS trainers fit perfectly into my routine,” Anja tells us after her first few weeks with Bodify. “Short sessions allow me to take mindful moments for myself without losing much time. As a young mom, that really helps me create balance.”

The EMS application is flexible—for example, it can target specific muscle groups like abs, legs, or glutes. Depending on how you feel, you can combine it with light exercises to keep it varied.

“I’ve tried different workouts in the past. But I often lacked time, energy, or motivation. With a small child, staying consistent was especially difficult. The ability to train at home on my own schedule was a game-changer. Bodify fits into my daily life—and that’s what makes the difference for me.”

Bodify: Movement in everyday life after pregnancy

“After my first pregnancy, I discovered Bodify and EMS training for myself,” Anja concludes. “By that time, I had already completed postpartum recovery. Today, Bodify is a part of my daily life. The trainers are firmly integrated into my movement routine.”

For many mothers looking to gradually return to physical activity after childbirth, EMS offers a flexible way to bring movement back into their routine. It’s adapted to their pace and can be implemented without much planning or effort.

And as Anja’s story shows: EMS trainers can continue to support you even beyond the postpartum phase.
