Exercising and getting in shape is more than accessible nowadays thanks to the numerous devices that help model our bodies in record time. And lately, it goes down even better, since numerous manufacturers have started to bombard customers with various gadgets and devices they can use at home, being no need to hit the gym. One of these devices is the Power Plate my5 vibration training machine.

The my5 Power Plate is an exercise machine that uses vibration for full body fitness. The my5 is designed to be used to help everyone from sports teams to the elderly achieve new levels of fitness and performance.

 

My5's Advanced Vibration Technology uses the body's natural response to vibrations to stimulate muscle strength, circulation and performance. The response is similar to your leg's involuntary kick when a doctor strikes your lower knee.

 

My5 produces vibrations that transmit waves of energy throughout the body. The vibrations activate a natural reflex of rapid yet minimally invasive muscle contractions at 35 times per second. These contractions help you achieve the pleasurable release of hormones in the body (often called "runner's high") much faster than traditional forms of exercise.

 

Vibration training on the my5 offers a host of other important benefits, such as increased muscle strength and flexibility, better range of motion, increased bone density and improved blood circulation. Also, studies have demonstrated that the Advanced Vibration Technology can reduce pain and soreness, and speed the recovery of damaged muscles and tendons.

 

Coming in white, black and silver, the my5 features a remote control, for ease of use, quick-start programs for Strength, Stretch, Massage and Relax and adjustable speed vibrations. It all seems perfect but the great downside, if not the only, is that the my5 retails for about 4,500 US dollars, money that could easily be spent on going to the gym and using the device there, until you have a body that can't be any fitter.
