First, you might be wondering, what is a Power Plate? The Power Plate is a brand of machine that offers whole-body vibration training. You stand or sit on the platform and adjust the frequency and intensity of the vibration to create instability which causes your muscles to act reflexively. This vibration training can have many benefits and can also be good for those who may have a harder time with traditional exercise. Want to try it out with trained instructors?
