vibration machines

Auntycincin

hi guys just wondering if anyone has a vibrating machine?
does is work as they say it does?
if you have one do you do other exercise as well?
thanks

Ainar

My gym has one. People just stand on it for 30 min doing nothing. I doubt it does anything whatsoever apart from maybe placebo...

Its good for using after a good workout, for stretching/ relaxing etc. But you need to exercise to lose weight!

I've not personally tried this machine to experience these benefits as yet but the information is based on research before I purchased one ... It's still in its original packaging so won't know until I actually try it ... Hope this helps

Vibration machines have been used successfully in the context of physiotherapy for quite a few years and, when used appropriately, have some very real benefits.

The sale of full body vibration machines in the context of weight loss is nothing more than 21st century snake oil. Manufacturers are making ludicrous claims (^^^^increased gravitational forces ???????:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: somebody failed physics....).

Don't waste your money......

I don't normally comment on these sorts of things but that list of benefits made me snort :laugh:

Anyway, I've used one of those and I couldn't tell it made any difference whatsoever.

Increased gravitional forces 

Only if it's made from dark matter.

I think every good woman has one.

My mom had one of these when I was about six. We used to get on it and "work out".

wikiweightloss

Yeah and if you work on it with a potato in your right hand during four hours a full moon night you gonna loose twenty pound in 2 days !

And this

My local post office manager has one behind his counter that he uses every day. He swears by it and he actually has lost weight. He does the full routine eg push ups on it and it tries to shake him off it so it must have some effect. Not convinced by the fat shrinking he describes, though.

The only way to work out if it works or not is to only use it as the manufacturer describes and not decrease your food intake nor do any other exercise. After all, you can lose weight licking paper as part of a healthy lifestyle incorporating exercise.

Gave me an itchy nose. So didnt do it again.
The ladies I've seen on it are the ones who leave the gym with their make-up intact.
Havent seen any men on them, well apart from on the instructions posters.

mcibty

Yeah, mine's a handheld one and works every time.

It makes me quite skeptical when products claim such a long list of benefits to completely different systems in the body.

Also, "stops aging from occurring?" If we could do that I think it would be the leading news story worldwide and someone would be winning a nobel prize.

I'd be very interested to know what (if any) research is behind this.

I actually have one and its incorporated into my training... I tend to swim 3x a week / strength train 2x or vice versa...

I use the Vibration machine for stretching and to do exercise on not just stand there (standing on it is of no benefit what so ever!) but i do do squats, planks, lunges, bridges I like the added benefit of it while doing them. I actually started it after a knee injury and my physio used one and like it so decided to invest in one... I would never use it as a replacement to exercise just as an add on and most of the claims in my opinion from the above post are absolute crap.

giggity is totally right.

only thing its going to help you do is reduce stress.

My mom still has one of those! She also had one of these:


This puppy kept me cellulite-free during my entire childhood!
