Today's 'always-on', 24/7 power lifestyles may be rewarding, but they come with some unwelcome side effects. Stress and depression are taking an increasing toll of young urban professionals today, as they succumb to the constant grinding of extremely demanding careers even as they strive to keep ahead of the curve.

Among the best stress and depression busters in existence is exercise and physical conditioning. With its innovative electromyostimulation system, SPEED FIT offers young urban professionals a painless, convenient and tailor-made solution to combat debilitating stress and depression.

The SPEED-FIT system is tried and tested and presents a workable alternative to hours of repetitive training sessions in the gym that can be quite dull and boring. Through short, intense sessions and effective targeted sessions, the user can gain the benefit of hours of sweating it out in a relatively short period of time.

It has been proven that virtually any form of exercise, from aerobics to yoga, can act as a stress reliever. Even if a person is not an athlete or is out of shape, a little exercise can make a big difference to stress levels by improving your overall sense of well being.

Any sort of physical activity helps to bump up the production of endorphins, boosting your feel good factor. A strenuous bout of activity also helps to take one's mind away from the day's tensions and crises and creates a feeling of optimism and renewed energy. Regular exercise can also increase self-confidence and lower the symptoms associated with mild depression and anxiety. Exercise can also help to improve sleep patterns, which get disrupted by increasing stress levels, depression and anxiety.

SPEED-FIT's unique electromyostimulation training system makes it possible for users to achieve their strength and fitness goals with just two 15-minute workout sessions per week. Using the principle of electrically stimulating muscles to contract repeatedly for quick and effective results, SPEED-FIT offers their patrons maximum results in minimum time.

"SPEED-FIT offers a painless and convenient method for customers to gain the benefit of exercise and improve overall fitness and well being. We offer tailor-made programmes designed to suit each customer's individual needs and preferences with the flexibility of either using our club facilities or opting for working out at home under expert supervision," said SPEED-FIT UAE CEO Mariam Mohammed Saeed Hareb.

SPEED-FIT has customisable fitness regimens and solutions for users with varying goals and needs. Backed by years of German research and technology, SPEED-FIT is able to deliver efficient solutions for a variety of customer needs. They offer programmes for a variety of customer goals including: strength-building, body-shaping, bodybuilding, both targeted and overall weight loss, and recuperative needs.

SPEED-FIT is all set to open its brand new, state-of-the-art EMS workout centre in Dubai's prestigious Business Bay District later this month. Slated to be the world's largest EMS workout facility, the 4,200 sq ft club, which will open doors on April 22, will provide customers with high-end workout and relaxation facilities complete with dedicated men's and women's areas. SPEED-FIT will also host an Open Day exclusively for ladies on April 25, with special rates and programs on offer.
