Full effects with just a push of the button

Power Plate has caused a revolution in the fitness, health and wellness, beauty & anti-aging industry. The secret: anyone can achieve great success in a very short period of time. With just one push of the button, you turn on the Power Plate and experience a pleasantly vibrating platform. The idea of vibration training originates from the Russian space program, where it was used to improve bone density and reinforce the muscles of their cosmonauts. This technology proved to be very successful, as the Russians were able to set a record of 420 days in outer space. The American astronauts, training on conventional fitness equipment, were forced to give up after 120 days due to bone and muscle failure. Vibration training was developed to counteract the lack of gravity in space. A platform generates vibrations, which are then transferred to the muscles in the body, causing them to contract in a reflex. This contraction also stimulates circulation tremendously. Tendons are stretched, and the reflex reinforces deep-lying muscles such as the pelvic floor muscles, the muscles around the spinal column and even in the face. The Power Plate is the result of optimizing this principle. Without using additional weights, and without having to put any additional strain on the locomotive system, the team of Power Plate experts have developed several training schedules enabling anyone to improve looks, health and general well being. Anyone can use the Power Plate, whether they are top athletes, untrained, elderly or overweight.

Advanced Vibration Technology

Advanced Vibration Technology exploits the body's innate reflexive response to disruptions in stability in order to stimulate enhanced muscle strength and performance. The Power Plate produces a vibration through which energy is transferred to the body. This mechanical stimulus produces a stretch reflex which, depending on the frequency, results in rapid and intense muscle contractions 30-50 times per second.

Vibration training on the Power Plate offers a host of benefits such as considerably improving muscle strength, flexibility, range of motion, bone density and stimulating blood circulation. Additionally, studies have proven Power Plate's ability to reduce muscle pain and soreness, and expedite the recovery of damaged muscles and tendons.

Just as the leg kicks forward involuntarily when the doctor strikes the lower knee to test reflexes, the body's muscles engage in an involuntary reflexive contraction in response to vibration's disruption in stability. The body's reaction to this mechanical stimulus is all natural and occurs involuntarily at the neural level.

Applications

The Power Plate has already made a substantial impact in the world of sports medicine and strength and conditioning and is gaining attention among mainstream health and fitness professionals and alternative health centers across the country. However, Power Plate is not merely a training method for elite athletes, but also for individuals young and old, regardless of their physical and neurological condition, who want to live longer healthier lives.
