providing the schedule to one or more of the user and the wearer from the electronic platform;

generating the plurality of electrical pulses with a pulse generator at the scheduled different times; and

transmitting the plurality of electrical pulses to one or more pads attached to the wearer and in communication with the pulse generator at the scheduled different times.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising tracking one or more of statistics and sensor data related to implementation of at least one of the two or more electrical stimulation sessions, and adjusting the schedule according to one or more of the statistics and the sensor data.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving by the user an adjustment to one or more parameters of one or more of the plurality of electrical stimulation sessions.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the adjustment is based on information regarding the wearer obtained from the one or more application programs linked to the wearer.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user and the wearer are the same person.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the user is a professional and the wearer is a client of the professional.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the professional is one or more of a healthcare professional and a trainer.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined timeframe is at least a day.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined timeframe is at least a week.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined timeframe is at least a month.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the schedule is made available to download from the electronic platform onto a computing device.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the schedule is made available to one or more other users of the electronic platform.

13. The method of claim 1 , further comprising authenticating one or more of the user and the wearer before permitting retrieval of the schedule.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein retrieval of the schedule by one or more of the user and the wearer occurs automatically.

15. The method of claim 1 , further comprising recording data derived from the implementation of the two or more electrical stimulation sessions for analysis.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of electrical stimulation sessions differs in at least one of a stimulation frequency, a pulse width, a duty cycle parameter, a ramp up and a ramp down value, and a burst pulse parameter.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of electrical stimulation sessions include one or more of a drop foot assistance program, a rehabilitation program, a recovery program, a relaxation program, and an improved performance program.

18. A system for providing electrical stimulation to a user, the system comprising:

one or more electrical muscle stimulation devices, comprising:

a pulse generator structurally configured to generate electrical pulses in response to execution of a stimulation program; and

one or more pads in communication with the pulse generator, the one or more pads structurally configured to attach to a wearer and to transmit the electrical pulses to stimulate the wearer according to the stimulation program;

an electronic platform hosted by a server and including a web-based user interface for managing stimulation programs; and

a processor and a memory in communication with the electronic platform, the memory storing non-transitory computer executable code embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium, that, when executed by the processor, performs the steps of:

communicating with one or more application programs linked to the wearer via one or more application program interfaces (APIs), the one or more application programs including at least one of a health-related application program or a fitness-related application program;

obtaining information on the wearer from the one or more application programs, the information on the wearer related to one or more of motion of the wearer and the health of the wearer;

analyzing the information on the wearer;

providing a plurality of electrical stimulation sessions for selection by a user on the web-based user interface, each of the plurality of electrical stimulation sessions configured for implementation on the one or more electrical muscle stimulation devices, and each of the plurality of electrical stimulation sessions including a beginning and an end with a plurality of electrical pulses therebetween for transmitting to the wearer of the one or more electrical muscle stimulation devices, wherein the plurality of electrical stimulation sessions include a tailored stimulation program and a plurality of predetermined stimulation programs different from the tailored stimulation program;

presenting two or more electrical stimulation sessions of the plurality of electrical stimulation sessions for selection by the user;

upon selection of the two or more electrical stimulation sessions by the user, creating a schedule for implementation of the two or more electrical stimulation sessions at scheduled different times over a predetermined timeframe, the schedule customized for the wearer;

providing the schedule to one or more of the user and the wearer from the electronic platform; and

executing the stimulation program with the pulse generator and the one or more pads at the scheduled different times.
