    Recovering after surgery

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

    How clients rebuilt after surgery

Sound familiar?

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

  1. 01

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

    Most workouts only reach the muscle fibers you can consciously contract. An EMS suit stimulates up to 90% of them during simple movements, so every rep does more. Harisha trained for years with flat results and saw measurable strength gains within 8 sessions.

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

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

    One P20 session is 20 minutes, one or two times a week, with the suit, clothing and coaching provided. Most clients are in and out in about 35 minutes, lunch break included.

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

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

    In EMS the suit is the resistance, not a barbell. You train standing, with light movements, and your trainer adjusts intensity muscle group by muscle group. Clients with knee pain, degenerative discs and post-surgical limits 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. John lost 20 lbs over 24 sessions; Steve added an inch to his arms in six weeks.

Before your first session

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.
