Abstract: An EMS garment for enclosing a body part of a trainee during an EMS training session includes textile area sections and EMS electrodes for transmitting EMS stimuli from a connected EMS stimulation generating unit to the body part, which EMS electrodes are each connected to one of the textile area sections and are each formed as a pad or a textile structure section having an electrically conductive layer so as to flexibly snuggle to the body part. The textile area sections facing the front side and the rear side are connected along a height direction by stretch sections facing both flanks of the body part, each of which consists of a rubber-elastic, elastomeric solid material.

Abstract: An EMS exercise device is provided which includes EMS electrodes and at least one sacrificial anode, preferably a dedicated sacrificial anode for each EMS electrode. The at least one sacrificial anode is connected to the EMS electrodes in an electrically conductive manner in order to protect the EMS electrodes and/or other elements in the electrically conductive connections from corrosion. In addition, an EMS electrode with a sacrificial anode, an EMS garment a sacrificial anode, an EMS signal cable a sacrificial anode, an EMS pulse generating unit a sacrificial anode, and an EMS undergarment with a sacrificial anode for an EMS exercise device are provided, and a method for operating an EMS exercise device, for which a sacrificial anode is provided.

Abstract: An EMS stimulation current transmission element for an EMS garment includes a planar current transmission region of an EMS electrode for transmitting EMS stimuli to the living body, which contains a number of two-dimensionally arranged linear current conductor strand sections and is connected, via a further number of linear current conductor strand sections, to a connection point that is in particular spaced apart from the current transmission region, at which connection point the EMS stimulation current transmission element can be connected to an EMS stimulation current production unit, in order to load the current transmission region with an EMS stimulation current shaped by the EMS stimulus current production unit from a current drawn from a current source to form a pulse sequence and/or to form an alternating current. The current transmission region has a single linear current conductor strand section. An EMS garment has an EMS stimulation current transmission element.

Abstract: The invention is concerned with an EMS garment, such as a vest or a bottom strap, for enclosing a body part of a trainee during an EMS training session, comprising textile area sections (1, 2, 3; 101, 102, 103) for plane snuggling to the body part, and EMS electrodes for transmitting EMS stimuli consisting of current pulses and/or alternating current with predetermined values such as amplitude and frequency from a connected EMS stimulation generating unit to the body part, which EMS electrodes are each connected to one of the textile area sections (1, 2, 3; 101, 102, 103) and are each formed as a pad or a textile structure section having an electrically conductive conductive layer so as to flexibly snuggle to the body part, wherein the EMS garment comprises, in regions facing the front side and the rear side of the body part, at least one of the textile area sections (1, 2, 3; 101, 102, 103), wherein the textile area sections (1, 2, 3; 101, 102, 103) facing the front side and the rear side are connecte

Abstract: An EMS training device includes an EMS stimulus generating unit for generating EMS stimuli following a specified excitation pattern with current pulses and/or an alternating current. EMS electrodes are attached to a living body in pairs for applying the EMS stimuli to the body. Line branches connect the EMS electrodes to the EMS stimulus generating unit to apply the EMS stimuli to corresponding EMS electrodes such that a current with a specified amplitude and frequency pattern is conducted through the body. To protect the EMS electrodes and/or other susceptible elements of the line branches from corrosion, the EMS training device has at least one measuring device for measuring a value of a resistance in the line branch, a comparison device for comparing the value with a target value, and at least one compensation device for compensating for a deviation of the actual value from the target value.
