Does anyone use the vibrating plate? I bought the Crazy fit Vibe Pro and am starting at 10mins x 2 @ 35 speed, can't tell how many calories burned. It helps my circulation so I'm getting some benefit from it.

    No, but I have tried them before. Would love to hear if it is working for you long term!

    Hi
    I use one in the gym for 20 to 30 mins at a time. You have to do exercises whilst your doing it. Standing still is no good. I enjoy it. Give it ago.

    They just revamped an old scam.

    It isn't going to bring results. Get out there an excercise.

    I kind of have to agree with him...brings to mind the old belt shaker of old...my aunt had one....never did a darn thing for her...as far as circulation....walking, biking, swimming and massage etc get the blood moving too plus you get the benefits of serotonin and muscle/skin toning which I dont think you would get from just being shaken around. sorry :(

    We have one at the gym I go to. There's a five-minute time limit to use it though. I don't use it for exercise, but now and then after a workout I'll get on it and use it on the massage settings, just for the health benefits if it really is making a difference for your muscles after a workout, and to improve circulation and all of that it says that it does.

    I tried one for a few months, I was really into and keen to try something new.
    I use to use light free weights while on it, and resistance bands but didn't really have any results from doing so. I was doing 20 mins every other day, and honestly, I found it pretty boring. But that's just my opinion on it all!
