The mantra 'No pain, no gain' is frequently echoed, misleadingly linking post-workout soreness with success and implying that you need to hurt to grow. However, real progress shouldn't be measured by pain. A significant downside of exercise-induced discomfort is its knack for lowering one's NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis)🌡, effectively reducing VILPA (Vigorous Intermittent Lifestyle Physical Activity) 🚫💪🏃♂️.
Consider commercial whole-body EMS (Electric Muscle Stimulation) as an example. It's promoted for boosting muscle strength and definition. While the FDA recognizes that commercial EMS devices can have a short-term impact on muscles, they further indicate that it's crucial they're paired with regular exercise and a balanced diet.⚡🔌🏋️♂️🩺🥗
EMS induces tiredness, stiffness and soreness lasting about 4 days, but it doesn't mean it's working better; rather it points to an increased degree of muscle micro-damage. This trauma leads to inflammation, causing a drop in VILPA/NEAT due to pain and following tiredness. Disturbances at the cellular level might sometimes lead to long-term problems and possible major health risks. Remember, reactions can vary: some might benefit, while others could face inflammation-related issues that could have negative long-term consequences. 💥😵⚠️
Scientific Note
The core contrast between KineDek and WB-EMS lies in their mechanisms: WB-EMS induces an inflammatory response by stimulating the immune system through muscle agitation, whereas KineDek modulates muscle contractions without activating the immune system, consequently promoting a muscle-activated anti-inflammatory response. Further elaboration on this topic can be found in the IL-6 Enigma.
