PowerPlate exercise machine - is it load of pants?

[inglis]

Has anyone used one and what do they think?

anyone?

I have an exercise machine but dont know what it is called. can you describe it?

No buy I've seen them advertised. Wouldn't it be just Brill if they actually worked?

It looks like a pile of pants.

I'd get a wobble board instead, tbh.

Good link. Sounds like a huge waste of money then.

It's a vibrating board thing, Mrs Weasley. Madonna's got one apparently.

I had an instructor at the gym show me how to use it a while ago,it seems to easy to do nothing iykwim.I think if you hold a difficult strenuous position it would work.
I didn't enjoy it though and haven't used it again.
I reckon it will be a shortlived phase.

Only just seen this and I have to say I use one regularly 2-3x per week and I have definately seen a great improvement in my tone, strength my skin looks less saggy ( particulalrly on jelly belly) I go to a power plate centre so good instructirs (they only teach PP)
Its bloody hard work when you get beyond first couple of sessions - I am knackered after a 30 minute class and tend to leave at least 2 days between each class. I would really recommend it - will be looking for a place in the UK when we return next year (inchicago currently) HTH

one last thing - wouldn't buy one though...
