Longstanding partnership brings together one of endurance sports’ most accomplished athletes and a leader in electrical muscle stimulation technology for the launch of the new Compex Ultimate EMS range.
September 28, 2026 -- Compex, a global leader in electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) technology and part of Enovis™, a global medical technology innovator, today announced the renewal of its longstanding partnership with Kilian Jornet, one of the world’s most accomplished endurance athletes, supporting the launch of the new Compex Ultimate EMS range.
The partnership marks the continuation of a relationship built over nearly two decades around performance, recovery and innovation. A globally recognized athlete across trail running, ski mountaineering and mountain endurance challenges, Jornet has relied on Compex EMS technology throughout much of his career, incorporating it into rehabilitation, muscle activation, recovery, strength training and competition preparation.
“The first time I used a Compex EMS product was after an injury in 2006, and since then it has been part of my routine in many different situations,” explained Jornet. “I've used it for recovery after training, rehabilitation after injuries, before competition and more recently as part of my strength training. What I find particularly valuable is its ability to help activate muscles and support neuromuscular function without adding unnecessary mechanical load.”
As part of the renewed collaboration, Jornet will work closely with the Compex team to demonstrate how the company’s new Ultimate range can be integrated into athletes’ training and recovery routines. Designed to be lighter, more portable and more customizable through the Compex app, the Ultimate range is designed to make EMS easier to incorporate into everyday training, recovery and performance preparation.
“Some partnerships are built over time. Others feel inevitable. With Kilian, the connection has always been authentic because it is rooted in shared values. His commitment to sustainable performance, intelligent training and continuous improvement perfectly reflects the philosophy behind Compex,” said Arnaud Marie, General Manager of Compex. “As we launch the new Ultimate range, there could not be a more credible or inspiring athlete to help demonstrate how innovative technologies can support athletes at all levels of activity in training, recovery and long-term progression.”
