Have you got a Vibration Plate and would you recommend it?

[ChloeCannotCanCan]

I've got a small home gym and I want some new equipment. I was quite tempted by a vibration plate - I want to tone up, help lose some excess fluid on my stomach and thighs and be something a bit different than just doing squats etc on the floor.

Does anyone have one? Or use them in a gym? Would you recommend them?

I read that these are really helpful for maintaining bone density. I did see a post on instagram about them recently with lots of women saying that they seem to have disappeared from gyms (anecdotal evidence that "men didn't use them" so that's why) and calling for them to be reinstated.

Apparently you can pick them up reasonably priced second hand.

Other options are a walking pad or a stepper!

Oh that's interesting - thanks!

If the men don't need them they get chucked eh?

My husband bought one and it’s lived under our sofa for the last 3 years. Sorry that is no help to you, but further evidence that men don’t use them!

Does he want you to sell it? 😂

I think I'm going to get one - not a massive investment and things to build up my stability and flexibility and bone density are needed!

Jumping in to ask - did you get one, and did it work?
