Vibroplate



Recommended Posts

Do any of you use a vibroplate in your exercise program? I go to the gym 3 times a week and will continue o do so because i have paid in advance but I saw a new year sale or a home version and wondered if they re any good.

What is a vibroplate?

A machine that vibrates and exercises your muscles, you stand on the plate or take different poses and different sets of muscles are exercised. You only use it for 10-15 mins and it is supposed to be the same as a full gym workout. You might call them something different in the US, I live in UK

IMHO..anything that offers a full body workout by just standing there and being vibrated is about the same as "take this pill and get a beach body in 30 days while eating what you want"...smile, again..just my opinion.

I've used them on the past not a home version but one at a club. They really are amazing for firming. I would use bands while on it and you could truly feel the burn. If I thought the home version was comparable I would buy it but my concern is they won't be as strong.

      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.
