For pivotal platforms, a motor and tilt mechanism is used underneath the platform to generate vibrations. From user's feet, the vibration flow upwards to reach the body. This triggers a natural reaction within the muscle commonly referred to as a “Stretch Reflex”. This has become important for us as users to know how the technology works and what can be done to help ensure you make the most it in terms of burning calories and improving your lifestyle. The muscles involuntarily expand and contract at a speed associated with the frequency being used ie. 18htz, 18 x per second. Due this contraction, muscles fibres are in a more active state than when they are in conscious voluntary movement. The muscles get tired then recover during your short break. It strengthens to withstand the increase effort. The exercises that one takes on vibration machine are anaerobic which means that you are burning energy without the presence of oxygen. This is the reason that why it is conducted in short bursts. This yields the most beneficial results and are sure to be seen sooner or later.
How to perform?
You have to step onto the machine with both feet hip-width apart. You can grab the hand rails for support. After turning on the machine, select the program you wish to use. Depending upon your level and goal, choose the intensity of vibrations. Therapeutic use may involve a couple of poses and perhaps 5-6 minutes of use. This has become important for us as users to know how the technology works and what can be done to help ensure you make the most it in terms of burning calories and improving your lifestyle. If you are there for fitness, a whole body work out can be accomplished with a variety of direct and indirect exposure poses, total time on the vibration machine should not exceed 10-12 minutes but if you are their to burn off the extra calories then you will need to ensure you are challenging yourself appropriately and holding poses that are accomplishable but difficult again 10-15 minutes inclusive of a cool down are all you need. If you can maintain balance, remove the hands from the rails but do not fall.
