Vibration Plates

 

Vibration plates are the latest addition to the “passive exercises” category. These fitness-training aids are increasingly becoming popular and you can find them in gyms, weight loss salons, and even people’s homes. The way in which vibration plates work is based on the concept of whole body vibration (WBV), which involves standing on a platform with vibrating plates positioned beneath the feet. How different vibration plates work  may differ, but what these machines do is send vibration signals that trick the brain into thinking that you’re falling. In response to this instability, your muscles contract multiple times per second in order to stabilize the body.
