Possible positive effects of EMS training
- Reduction of waist and abdominal circumference
- Reduction of body fat
- Increase in endurance and performance capacity
- Possible reduction of back pain
- Improvement of endurance under back strain in everyday situations
Training instructions
EMS training offers the opportunity to train highly effectively and time-efficiently. It is therefore a very good way to increase strength, build muscle, and reduce fat. It can generate stimulus intensities higher than conventional training methods.
For these reasons, some important conditions must be observed during training.
Training preparation
- EMS training can only be performed in an appropriate physical condition
- Refilling carbohydrate stores before training is important, as the very large muscle mass used leads to a high metabolic load
- Also, increased fluid intake before, during, and after training should be observed
Training progress
- In the first training sessions, you should definitely not overexert yourself. Training should be done with a reduced training time (approx. 12–15 min.) and an appropriate intensity. Subsequently, the training time should be gradually increased to 20 minutes
- Avoid training with too high intensity in general
- You should allow at least 24 hours of rest between 2 training sessions for recovery
Quick start guide

- If necessary, assign a new profile name for the training
- Establish Bluetooth connection to the BELT 2.0 box (click “Bluetooth” at the top right, then “Search,” then click “Connect” on “eaglefit_Belt2.0_xxx”)
- Select the training program on the right side
- Adjust the intensity of the impulses higher or lower with the arrow keys
- Start training, after 20 minutes stop
- settings saveby using the app with the arrow top left leaves
- Make sure to drink enough water before, during, and after training water to drink, at least 1/2 liter more than usual

First use of the BELT 2.0 box and the app
Charging the BELT 2.0 box
Before you can start training, please download and install the eaglefit EMS SYSTEM App from your app store by searching for “eaglefit” or “eaglefit EMS SYSTEM“.
Before first use, you must charge the BELT 2.0 box battery for at least 3 hours. The battery has overcharge protection, so you cannot “overcharge” it. While charging, the BELT 2.0 box indicator light glows blue. When the battery is fully charged, the indicator light glows green.
Download the eaglefit EMS System App from your app store:
First start
When starting the app, you can first choose between the different boxes (BELT, HOME, PRO, or CONNECT). Then select the appropriate product.
If you are using the app for the first time, create a profile for training. Under “Select profile” you can later save all your settings.
If you have already created profiles, they will be displayed. Select an already saved profile or add a new profile under which you can save the settings (impulse strength per muscle, etc.) later on.
The app is designed to always save the last set values of a training program in the profile. Therefore, the app will overwrite your set values as soon as you switch the training program within a profile.
We recommend creating a separate profile for each training program so you can always set and access the correct values for each program.
Once you have selected a profile, press “confirm” to go to the training interface with the preset values of the green-highlighted profile. Your changes will be saved if you leave this page later using the arrow at the top right corner.
First, please establish the Bluetooth connection to the EMS BELT 2.0 box. Turn on the charged EMS BELT 2.0 box (press the button with one finger for about 2 seconds) and search for it in the eaglefit App via “Bluetooth” at the top right next to the battery indicator, where you click “Search” in the next window. Select your EMS BELT 2.0 box (e.g., “eagle_belt2.0_0000”) by tapping “Connect” at the end of the line. Then you return to the training interface.
App explanation
The app is designed so you can create as many profiles as you want on each device. Each profile stores all settings and parameters for one type of impulse (Fitness/Metabolism/Relaxation/Individual/Fat Burning/Deep Core). Assign a suitable name to each profile.
The name can be, for example, “Thomas_Fitness” or “Muscle_Building.” Your data is stored exclusively on your device in accordance with GDPR. Therefore, you need to create separate profiles on your iPhone and iPad, for example.
Settings under “Parameters”
The following programs (“modes”) are already preinstalled on the eaglefit EMS System App:
Fitness
The fitness program is optimal for building large-volume white skeletal muscle, which is best trained with 5–12 repetitions per muscle group at about 80% of its maximum strength. The impulses are set to this muscle with a frequency of 85 Hz, without stressing joints, ligaments, and tendons with heavy training weights. The pulse width in this program is 350 μs.
Recommended training:
- Strength/weight training
- few repetitions (6-8)
- 1 set per muscle group
Metabolism/Cardiovascular
The metabolic program, which trains the red endurance muscles, can be specifically used for muscle toning. Activation of the slow-twitch muscle fibers breaks down fat and increases muscle definition. The training frequency is 7 Hz with a pulse width of 350 µs.
The metabolic training should ideally be combined with endurance exercises such as:
- Nordic walking
- Jogging
- Cycling
- Exercises on cardio machines
- Yoga
- Static exercises (do not set intensity too high)
Relaxation
This program produces gentle muscle twitches and promotes muscle recovery, faster regeneration, and is also used for functional restoration after illnesses. At a training frequency of 100 Hz and a pulse depth of 150 µs, tension is released and the muscles are supplied with nutrients.
You can enjoy the relaxation program for 5–10 minutes after an intense workout (with or without EMS) or after a tiring day for 10–30 minutes at a moderate intensity, for example simply on the sofa.
Individual
Choose the settings individually according to your preferences or therapeutic recommendations.
Advanced users can freely adjust all parameters (pulse frequency, pulse depth, pulse duration, pause, and training duration) with this program. Frequencies from 1-120 Hz and pulse depths from 50 – 400 µs are possible here.
Deep Core for deep muscles near the spine
This training program is specially designed for gentle but targeted strengthening of the deep muscles near the spine. The goal is to activate the deep stabilizing muscles in the back to relieve the discs and support the spine in the long term.
Mode of action:
The program creates a steady alternation of muscle tension and relaxation. The moderate impulses at 27 Hz mainly improve muscle endurance and stability. The comparatively long pulse duration ensures an intense yet gentle load, while the short pauses allow for steady blood circulation and regeneration.
Application area:
- Support for back problems related to disc issues
- Strengthening of the deep core muscles
- Prevention of poor posture and muscular imbalances
- Suitable for beginners as well as for people in rehabilitation
Fat burning
Please select the setting "4 / 2", which means a pulse duration of 4 seconds and a pause of 2 seconds. In this special program, you combine the benefits of the fitness and metabolism programs. During the active phase, you train your maximum strength at 60 Hz, and in the passive phase (pause phase), you train your endurance muscles at 7 Hz. This way, you challenge both muscle fiber types in one program.
Establishing the Bluetooth connection
A communication between the app and your BELT 2.0 box is established as soon as a Bluetooth connection is made.
To establish the Bluetooth connection, please click “Bluetooth” at the top right on first use.
