A review of research prompts New Zealand-based researchers to conclude WBV training doesn’t increase an athlete’s speed.
In a review of existing studies researchers from the Institute of Sport and Recreation Research, Faculty of Health and Environmental Science and Auckland University of Technology in New Zealand conclude that whole body vibration training does not increase speed for trained athletes.

I think people get pev'd because Sal does not include the research that shows clear results. He has been asked about the positive research and refuses to answer what must be uncomfortable questions.
It is identical to what he accuses other of is it not ?.

If you want to read more about Vibration Training.
There are articles specifically written for the Comsumer who wants to buy a home machine and for those who want to use a machine in a Studio or simply learn more about Vibration Training and how it can benefit them. There's a seperate section with articles written for Trainers and Studio or Gym owners.
Also a forum so that readers can ask questions after reading articles and for those in the industry to use for discussion.

I have to remove my recommendation of HyperGravity platforms. This is due to massive breakdown of machines both in studio and also of some home machines and lack of communication within the industry to fix these matters and protect the comsumer.
