Power plate, vibration plate



Recommended Posts

Power plate is a fantastic machine ; 10 min exercise is claimed to equal one hour in the gym. It does not require active movements, can be practiced even when fatigued. It can move and vibrate many muscles in the body including back and tummy muscles. It is claimed to be anti-osteoporosis and increase the venous circulation as well.

Do not jumb on the machine after food or drink

This is not an ad. It is a way I found useful to tone your muscles even if you are weak. You can give it a try in a Gym or in sports shop; then judge for yourself.

if it really worked that well wouldn't the gym's carry it?or curves? It is really expensive and I do not want any more crap in my home. Trying to downsize. I would go to a gym and work out. Gets me out of the house.

It is not expensive . I bought a taiwanese machine called "crazy fit message" for about $500 only. The original american power plate is worth of $15,000 which is suitable for hotels and big gyms.

drmed :ok so you buy it on the cheap and now you have this big machine in your home. SO? does it work? What are the stats?

The machine is not that big. It is a plate enough to stand on. It can fit in any corner. IT is nice to tune many muscles at the same time especially in the odd days that there is will for a treadmill or other exercises. It also can give you the feeling of chair massage or back rub! It also can be used as a warm up before proper exercise.

To avoid harm the joints; don't lock your knees while standing, always bend them a little. Every move or turn of the legs or waist , you will feel the vibration moving to another muscle.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
