Activate More Muscle Fibers


Power Plate’s vibrating surface actually forces your body to not only fight against regular gravity but also fight against vibrations. Independent studies have shown that working out on a Power Plate activates up to 138% more muscle fibers when compared to a standard workout (The American Chiropractor). Put more of your muscles to work and get better results by harnessing the power of micro vibrations.


Burn More Calories


Working out on a vibrating surface activates more muscles and in turn, burns more calories. Completing that exact same workout on a Power Plate can increase the number of calories burned by as much as 50% according to independent studies (European Association for the Study of Obesity). Burning more calories does not have to mean more hours in the gym or longer runs, it can be as simple as doing your regular workout on a Power Plate.


Improve Circulation


Tiny vibrations flowing through your body enhance the delivery of nutrients and oxygen to cells and supporting their functioning. Multiple studies have shown that whole body vibration increases skin blood flow. The increased skin blood flow can also help decrease the appearance of cellulite. Simply placing your body on a Power Plate for 5 minutes can immediately help improve circulation throughout your body.


Increase Bone Density


Whole-body vibration is a technology that was first developed by scientists in the second half of the 20th century as a way to reduce bone density loss and muscle atrophy in astronauts exposed to zero-gravity conditions 


Gravity applies a constant load on the skeletal system that’s what causes bones to maintain a certain density. Working out on a Power Plate increases this load on the bones helping increase bone density. In an independent study of 116 women, the group using the Power Plate saw a 4.3% increase in lumbar bone mineral density while the group that did not use Power Plate lost 1.9% bone mineral density (Whole-body vibration exercise in postmenopausal osteoporosis).


Muscle Recovery and Pain Relief


People rely on Power Plate to help them recover faster. By simply putting the painful area on top of the Power Plate to absorb the tiny vibrations customers report feeling instant relief. The soothing vibrations help increase blood flow that in turn can help improve muscle recovery times. Power Plate is used by athletes and doctors for pain relief and muscle recovery.
