Vibration Training will become the hot
new fitness tool
"Wobbling your way to health may not sound appealing
but that is how the vibration-training fad works. Users stand on a
vibrating plate and perform exercises such as squats and abdominal
curls. The vibrations trigger rapid muscle contractions, which means a
harder work-out than on a static surface. 10-15 minutes on a vibration
machine is said to be worth an hour in a gym. Russian cosmonauts as
well as Clint Eastwood, Madonna and the Chelsea soccer team have used
vibration training. Most popular machines cost more than $5000. But
unlike many machines, there are scientific studies to support their
use. If expensive equipment is not your thing, try a humble bag of
sand. The latest exercise trend in the US and United Kingdom imitates
building workers by lugging 18kg bags of sand for a specified
distance."
