Three Easy Ways to get a Flat Stomach
How a Sydney Mom Lost 15Kg by Following This Simple Plan!
Amazing Berry Drink – Lose Weight Fast!
Dropping exhausted onto the couch at the end of the day, Double Big Burger and large can of cola for dinner and TV remote in hand, it’s so easy to be taken in by the latest advertising scams. They play on our desire to see results with little effort, or they reinforce the guilt we already feel for not finding the time or the energy to go to the gym, or even to take a walk around the park at lunchtime. We remember our last physical check-up and the doctor’s advice to lose 20kg and to get our blood sugar levels or blood pressure back to normal levels or risk long-term health problems, cardio-vascular disease or worse. Or maybe it’s the thought that our new co-worker looks so good while the mirror shows us a different picture or that we’re trying to catch the eye of the parcel delivery guy whose well defined arm muscles and friendly smile make us go weak at the knees.
Whatever the reason, be it vanity or a real need, we have all been taken in by scams like the ones above. We live in an instant age where life proceeds at such fast pace that some days it feels like we’re running hard-out to keep up. The trouble is the running is figurative only; it’s a mental stress that also adds to the sense of there never being quite enough time to exercise.
In my role as a vibration training instructor, I’m working with some customers who have found the answer to their health and fitness needs. Not an easy or instant promise of change but a program that requires effort and commitment. The results I’m seeing are life-changing.
One of my customers has agreed to share her story.
Carol first came in to check out vibration training ten weeks ago. Her main goal was weight-loss. She wanted to look great and she had a definite time frame in mind as she was travelling to U.S.A. at the end of June to visit family and have a vacation. Her trip would involve long distances of travel by plane and car, along with staying in various hotels and homes, and eating out at restaurants and parties.

This is quackery. QUACKERY.
You are wasting money if you believe in "vibration medicine."
Not a single peer-reviewed scientific journal has published findings validating this quackery.
2 - Di Heap
David, You are entitled to your opinion but I have just one question for you: Have you tried a high energy training machine?
The fact that you use the term "vibration medicine" says you don't know much about this form of exercise and therapy at all. And on the subject of scientific studies you are wrong. It's all happening, now that researchers have learnt to match their studies specifics with the right type of vibration machine (google is your friend here so you learn the various types).
Rowing machines and even hand weights were not so long ago considered to be bad, dangerous, and quackery.

Di, Another good exmaple that shows on the right type of machine, good supervision, and the safety first workout, excellent results are acheived.
David, the above is not an isolated case, far from it in fact.
I know people who have been doing this training for years as part of thier excercise regime or as thier only excercise. They get good results, they keep coming back,they tell thier friends and family.
Try telling them that its quackery.

This story is the usual experience for people who take the time to try this form of training at stick to it. It is harder than expected but gives results based on that hard work.
Its good the author takes the time to differentiate between the rating of machine you need for a workout. I hate it when I see someone say "it vibrates so its vibration training" Sooooo misleading.
David , you using the term "vibration medicine." makes it obvious you have either tried or only read tests from medical units, not training machines. They are not remotely similar.
The medical units are lighter and only produce light vibrations, so not much energy to deal with and are more Physio" based. The training machines give off strong vibrations and you have to work very hard to hold a pose. An undeniable workout.
About the negative comment, understandably some people find change hard and fight it at every turn. Especially if they find it hard to understand.
But they always lose, you can never stop change.

I've not had any experience on these type of machines, but I've learned a lot about them through websites such as this author's blog and vibrationtraining.net
I would also like to note that our whole body is composed of cells which are in a state of constant vibration... when they are in health, that is.

I think you might be thinking about the more holistic nature of vibrations, rather than the hard workout type these machines use.
Maybe they are linked, who knows.
7 - Power Plate Vibration
Power Plate vibration device to increase the effectiveness of a workout. It consists of a large panel on the perception, a tower and a handle. If they are activated, the plate of vibrato, which sends waves of energy through the body.

Power Plate person.
You have just described about every platform in the world.
9 - Vibration Training Plate
Probably the most talked about form of exercise of late is vibration training;
the training system that can accelerate weight loss and body toning.

Please stop the viral marketing # 7 and # 9

I do not get it. You are using the name Power Plate to attract attention, even though they do not have a good reputation or product, but you sell another companies product. If you have to pretend to be a cheaply made product to look good, how bad is your product?

Nice article Di. As Wayne said I can also vouch for the fact that this is not an isolated case. We are seen great results in our UK studio - really not unusual for women to drop two dress sizes in a couple of months. We are also getting more and more guys in who love the fact that it gives them a 'gym' look body but without having to spend hours and hours a week to achieve it. I know many people who like David are quick to dismiss this as quackery. I know of very few if any who knock it after having completed a whole session on a high energy platform. Most studios offer a free trial - I just don't understand why people don't try it before passing judgement.
