How
Vibration Plate Works?
Vibration training might seem to be a new concept, but the
Russian professor Nazarov had already investigated this technology back in the
1970s. As a former top gymnast, Nazarov had seen the results of vibration
training close at hand. Vibration training was used by Olympic trainers in
Russia who were looking for the best form of training. Russian athletes
subsequently dominated the Olympic Games during that decade. Following the huge
success of the Russian athletes, the Russian Space programme also initiated
research, investigating vibration technology and the negative effects of
weightlessness on muscles and bones (osteoporosis).
Despite Nazaro's good results, politics and language prevented recognition of
the Russian's work by the West. Vibration technology was rediscovered in the
West at the end of the 1980s. It was the Italian sport physiologist, Carmelo
Bosco, who conducted extensive research into the vibration method. He is one of
the leading scientists who studied the effects of vibration technology on the
human body, particularly on the muscles, nervous system and hormones.
Whole Body Vibration is a form of training which uses reflexes. The Vibration
Plate generates mechanical energy (vibrations) which are transferred to the
body. This high frequency vibration causes a myotatic reflex or a stretch reflex
in the muscle being trained. The muscles involuntarily contract. A good example
of a stretch reflex is a reflex tested by the doctor when he gently taps a
reflex hammer under the knee. The muscles in the upper leg involuntarily
contract 100% automatically.
Vibration Plate stimulates the muscle's stretch reflex. With conventional power
training, only 40-45% of the muscle tissue contracts during a workout, on a
Vibration Plate the muscle tissues contract for 90-100%.
During the training, the muscle tissues contract at the set frequency. Each
vibration causes a contraction. Due to the high number of consecutive
contractions, the contraction is experienced as one long contraction. A full
work-out on a Vibration Plate takes 10 minutes and equals 1 hour in the gym and
you burn up to 350 calories.
The Body vibrations have many other positive effects
which include:-
Increased muscle strength
Improved circulation
Improved hormonal emission
Increased collagen
Improvement of basic metabolism
Improved flexibility
Increased bone density
Saves time
Improved coordination
Improved fitness
Faster muscle recovery by production of Human Growth
Hormone (HGH)
Attacks cellulite
Lymph drainage (fluid drainage)
Fat combustion
No more adhesions
Higher pain threshold and pain relief
Improves suppleness of muscles
Improved general health
Lowering of the stress hormone cortisol
Increasing the happy hormone serotonin
Less pressure on joints, ligaments and tendons
Increase in testosterone
Strengthening of the connective tissue
Training with less effort
Improved sense of balance
Fewer varicose veins
A Quick Way In To Stay
In Shape
Everyone considers health to
be an important asset. We not only keep healthy by eating a good diet but also
by physical activity. Often, however, physical activity loses out. We spend our
days at work, while our evenings are filled with social commitments.
Compared with any other training equipment, the Vibration Plate gives you a
better workout in less time and, more importantly with less effort. The unique
and revolutionary method applied by the Vibration Plate focuses on the stretch
reflexes of the muscles. The Vibration Plate is ideal for maintaining and/or
improving your general health, used by top athletes to provide benefits like
increased strength and recovery capacity, also used by doctors for faster
patient recovery after operations.
The Vibration Plate is the solution for people who have little free time but
want to have a fit, healthy, slim body. In a fraction of the time required by
other sports, you will experience 30% more effect with the Vibration Plate.
Combined with fitness exercises or other sports, the Vibration Plate offers even
more spectacular results.
Looking good makes you
feel good. Your self confidence grows accordingly.
In recent years, the number of people with weight problems has increased
dramatically. Being overweight puts you at great risk of heart disease, diabetes
and joint problems. Scientific research has shown that if you reduce your weight
by 5%, you also reduce the health risks. Using the Vibration Plate you can
maintain your weight at a healthy level, burning up to 350 calories a day.
Improving Beauty
Cellulite, that dimpled
orange peel effect, is caused by the accumulation of fat cells in the connective
tissue below the skin. Fat piles up surrounded by fluid. As the number of fat
cells in the subcutaneous fat tissue increases, dimples are formed by clusters
of fat cells. Poor blood circulation and unsatisfactory elimination of waste
material harden the cell clusters beneath the skin. The Vibration Plate helps
you fight cellulite.
The Vibration Plate improves the circulation. Furthermore it improves lymphatic
drainage, allowing better drainage of fluids and waste materials. The connective
tissue becomes stronger after training with the Vibration Plate. Your skin thus
becomes firmer and dimples and bumps disappear.
It not only helps you fight cellulite, it also smoothes away wrinkles. As the
connective tissue becomes stronger, your skin will become firmer, giving
wrinkles no chance to form.
Sports &
Rehabilitation
The Vibration Plate works according to the super-compression method-
movement, rest and repetition. This results in improved performance. The
vibrations transferred by the Vibration Plate to the body, with a frequency
between 30 and 50 vibrations per second, are converted into energy. The stretch
reflex responses make the muscles work hard. A shorter training and less
pressure has more effect than other training equipment.
With the Vibration Plate, muscle strength increases by up to 30% more than with
other power training and in 85% less time. Due to its lower impact workout and
shorter training time, the joints, ligaments and tendons are put under less
pressure. Research has shown that tendons, fascia and connective tissue are
manipulated by intermittent stretching. This relieves adhesions. Within a short
space of time, the Vibration Plate achieves very favourable results.
In rehabilitation situations, the Vibration Plate can be used very early on due
to its low impact training. The benefits and results also have a preventive
action regarding the functioning of the whole healing system. Furthermore
training on the Vibration Plate during in rehabilitation can be maintained for
longer as it takes less time and requires less effort. As a result of the wide
range of training and the experiences of top athletes, the Vibration Plate has
been very successful.
Anti Aging “Stay Young
Feel Good”
Humans usually experience a
gradual decline in physical performance from around the age of 35. How this
develops depends on lifestyle. Major research has shown that a conditional
decline of 1% a year can occur from the age of 25. It has also been shown that
regular exercise can delay the process. Around the age of 40, we reach our
maximum strength capacity; loss of strength will subsequently be most strongly
seen in the leg and trunk muscles. Any form of training slows down this loss.
Muscle tissue, joints and tendons lose their elasticity and suppleness with age,
causing people to become less supple. As one gets older, the muscle mass
declines and the amount of body fat increases. The Vibration Plate can have
great results, even if one starts later on in life.
Regular training with the Vibration Plate, about 10 minutes a day, 3 times a
week, can have benefits later on in life, irrespective of whether someone has
practised sports in the past. Thus whatever your age and unless there is any
counter indication, training on the Vibration Plate is guaranteed to benefit
you.
The Vibration Plate is an extremely effective and efficient method of training
to keep the aging process at bay for as long as possible. Your flexibility
increases and the resulting production of collagen improve your appearance.
Using the Vibration Plate you can do all the floor exercises you used to do.
However you can now enhance your workout externally without having to lift heavy
weights. When you do such an exercise dynamically for 1 minute, it has the same
effect as 30 lunges with a heavy pole on one's neck.
You can now improve the quality and quantity of your life fast and
effectively. With a Space Age health and fitness product: "Vibration Plate
