Abstract

The idea of this work has been caused by restrictions imposed all over the world in recent years. The closing of the gym has brought new approaches to having a toned body, paying attention to health safety. Proposed training methods include (EMS) and (TRX) for an experiment group, compared to the control group, which worked only with the program (TRX). The combination of the two muscle-forming techniques is the subject of this study. The Muscle Training Program (TRX) took place over 6 weeks, 4 times a week, with 8 male subjects in each of the two groups. The age of the participants is between 23 and 31 years, the study being conducted over 6 weeks. Data collected from subjects and statistically analyzed were analyzed. Body mass index and BMI values were recorded using Jackson-Pollock. Hypothesis: We intend to verify through this study the effectiveness of a muscle training program that uses the Suspension Training (TRX) method in combination with Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS). Conclusion: The results of the study prove that the use of equipment (TRX) in combined training (EMS) brings significant benefits in weight control. Mean weight values showed a decrease from 98.2 kg to 93.7 kg, down by 4.4 kg and 4.48% respectively, as well as body mass index (BMI) from 27.8% BMI to 23.3% BMI with 4.5% BMI. The hypothesis of the work has been confirmed, a visible muscle toning is performed, thus forming a complex basis.
