PepperEMS training, or training with electrical muscle stimulation technology, has long been offered by specialized fitness studios. However, the experience leaves much to be desired: "For a twenty-minute training session, I had to spend thirty minutes traveling there and back. The large glass fronts made me feel like I was being showcased in a shop window. The preparation, which involved wiring and spraying someone else's suit, was tedious, and it was also very expensive."", recalls Emilia von Keyserlingk, founder of the Munich-based startup Pepper. With her company, she wants to do better and bring EMS training into the home. In this interview, she tells us more about the background of Pepper, what makes her solution special, and what the startup's next steps will look like. (Image: Pepper)
