The Perfect Exercise for the Lazy

Whole Body Vibrational Training (WBVT) can provide significant health benefits while significantly reducing your workout time.

Can you imagine doing 30 exercise repetitions in a second, without even making an effort? That is what a vibration platform does. Every time the platform moves up and down, your muscles go through an involuntary contraction. If the platform is going up and down 30 times in a second, you are doing 30 reps in a second!

Vibration training can add another dimension to your workouts.

You can warm-up on the machine, workout on it and also cool-down on it.

Vibration training helps to maintain and improve bone density, improves cardiovascular health and fitness in the elderly and can aid in speeding up the healing after an injury.

It can also be used for balance training in the elderly, to reduce the chances of a serious fall.

Whole body vibration training does not only mimic exercise, it is exercise. When placed on vibration platforms, obese and diabetic mice gained muscle mass and improved their insulin sensitivity.

Individuals who are pregnant, who have pacemakers or have extreme osteoporosis, shouldn't use this piece of equipment. If you have any medical condition, you should consult your physician prior to beginning whole body vibration exercising.
