Summary

This pilot study tested whether whole-body electromyostimulation (WB-EMS) training can improve blood sugar control in 66 sedentary adults aged 40-65 with prediabetes. Participants were assigned to WB-EMS or control groups, and researchers measured changes in HbA1c and other health markers. The goal was to see if this technology could help manage prediabetes without medication.
