Powerplate

The vibrations caused by the rapidly moving Power Plate induce a tonic muscle reflex in the affected muscle fibers, resulting in effectiveness and enhanced motivation.

When using the Power Plate the entire body is affected: Legs, abdomen, behind, arms, back - whether you are untrained, overweight, and elderly of top fit. Power Plate will supply you with the possibility of feeling better and looking better. Each session consist of 10 different exercises each lasting a maximum of 60seconds. Different programs are available; anti cellulite, skin improvement, problem areas or fat burning. You may not exceed two training sessions per week.

10 to 15 minutes of the Power Plate is equal to 1 hour of exercise in the gym.

Once used to compensate for the zero-gravity conditions of space that cause astronauts' bones and muscles to weaken, this technology has been found in several scientific studies on Earth to substantially increase muscle strength, endurance, power, flexibility and bone density and to decrease levels of the stress hormone cortisol. It has since been adapted to sports applications and used by various Olympic teams. Now it's appearing in some gyms and health clubs.

You simply stand on the low platform and push a button. "It took a few minutes to get used to the fast, multidirectional shaking, but once I did I was aware of how all my lower-body and core muscles were contracting as I struggled to keep myself upright. Once I got the hang of it and began doing movements like lunges, squats and push-ups on the Power Plate, I really started to have fun with it: It feels kind of like the jiggly belt thing your mom has stored away in the basement!"
