-------------------
It's true, a better body in just 15 minutes a day! Proven by
decades of clinical research, the my5 vibration trainer will help
you achieve new levels of , fitness and performance in just
15 minutes per day, three times a week. They my5's Advanced
Vibration Technology uses your body's natural response to
vibrations to help improve muscle tone and stimulate circulation
and performance. Vibrations activate natural muscle reflexes up
to 35 times per second, giving you a host of benefits.

The Powerplate my3 Vibration Training Machine combines the
award-winning whole body vibration technology from Powerplate
with a stylish compact design and an equally compact price tag.
The Power Plate my3 is the trimmest, most economical way to bring
Acceleration Training exercise into any sized home or apartment,
enabling you to make room for three 15-minute full-body workouts
a week. The re-designed my3 model for 2008 combines form and
function, displaying a distinctly stylish edge. The newly
designed face plate will allow you to fully interact with the
machine, making it more user-friendly than ever before.
It uses whole-body vibration to increase muscle strength, blood
circulation, density, and uses whole-body vibration.
Originating in Europe, vibration exercise training is backed by
dozens of medical research reports and is being integrated into
daily routines by top universities, NFL teams, medical centers,
gyms and celebrities alike.
How It Works
The my3 employs a technology called Acceleration Training to
stimulate the body's natural response to vibration. These
vibrations transmit waves of energy throughout the body,
activating muscle contractions between 25 and 50 times per
second, thereby enhancing your overall fitness in sessions as
short as 15 minutes a day, three times per week. Acceleration
Training offers a host of benefits, ranging from an immediate
improvement in blood circulation to a variety of other measurable
outcomes, including increased muscle strength and flexibility,
improved range of motion, decreased cellulite, increased
mineral density, reduced pain and soreness, and faster recovery
from injury.
Acceleration Training works by creating instability in the human
body, as with each vibration the body is forced to perform
reflexive muscle actions. Furthermore, these contractions must
work in multiple dimensions, as the Power Plate machines actually
oscillate in all three directions, exactly as the human body is
designed to do. This means that one can improve functional force
(stability, strength, or power) by either applying more mass or
more acceleration to the body.
Many forms of training and conditioning use mass--as seen in
methods with weight machines and free weights. Power Plate
machines, by contrast, use the second half of the law of motion
equation: they apply acceleration to the body while keeping mass
(i.e., your body weight) the same. The result is that you work
against a far greater influence, or "load," of gravity in every
movement you perform. Power Plate machines are a great
alternative for people who enjoy an active lifestyle but don't
have the time to perform lengthy workouts three or more times a
week.
Sports Performance Benefits
For serious athletes, workouts on the Power Plate machines
enhance the results of conventional training and explosive
strength training, as well as serve athletes and trainers alike
to speed recovery and regeneration times. In just minutes, range
of motion and stability can increase, providing a perfect warm-up
before training or competing. In addition to being an ideal
pre-event tool, Power Plate machines are an excellent means of
continuously maximizing performance. As the vibrations stimulate
fast-twitch muscle fibers, athletes who use Power Plate machines
over time experience a dramatic increase in explosive strength,
motor learning, muscular endurance and overall agility.
