| WHAT
IS THE POWER PLATE® ? |
| |
|
| Power
Plate® equipment is the premium exercise device powering a new dimension in wellness solutions for all ages, lifestyles and physical abilities. It uses the principles of Acceleration Training™ to stimulate the body’s natural response to instability. The vibrating Plate transmits waves of energy throughout the body, activating muscle contractions between 25 and 50 times per second, enhancing overall performance in sessions as short as 30 minutes a day, 3 times a week. |
| |
| Acceleration Training™ on Power Plate® equipment offers a host of benefits, ranging from an immediate improvement in blood circulation, to a variety of other measurable outcomes: such as increased muscle strength and flexibility, improved range of motion, decreased cellulite, increased lean muscle mass and decreased body fat, increased bone mineral density, reduced pain and soreness, elevated mood and hormone secretion and fast recovery from injury. Our three-dimensional vibration technology continues to lead the industry, and its benefits are grounded in extensive academic and independent scientific medical research. |

| HOW
DOES IT WORK? |
| Acceleration Training™ with Power
Plate® machines creates instability in the human body, as with each vibration the body is forced to perform reflexive muscle actions, multiple times per second. Furthermore, these contractions must work in multiple dimensions as the Power
Plate® machines actually oscillate in all three planes, exactly as the human body is designed to do. The net result is an incredible improvement in force production, or strength and power. |
| |
|
| The principle by which Power
Plate® machines work lies in the law of motion, stated by Sir Isaac Newton: that the force of an object is equal to its mass multiplied by acceleration, or f = m x a. What this means is that one can improve functional force (stability, strength or power) by either applying more mass or more acceleration to the body. Many forms of training and conditioning use mass - as seen in methods with weight machines, free weights, etc. Power
Plate® machines, instead, use the second half of this equation, by applying acceleration to the body, while keeping mass, i.e. your body weight, the same. The result is that you work against a far greater influence or “load” of gravity in every movement you perform. In addition you can load mass (weights) to enjoy the benefits of both mass and acceleration speeding up the time you spend working out and gaining strength. |
