Vibration plate exercise: the secret to a healthier body?

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

UPDATE: hi everyone! Thank you all for sharing your stories! I have been living out of a suitcase for the past several month (traveling nonstop) so I haven’t been able to complete the follow-up to this video yet! I plan to be settled in one place next year and will be sure to make a part two then. 😊 thank you for your patience! In the meantime, I think it’s incredible to read all of your stories in the comments. I really miss have access to a vibe plate 🤍🙏✨ with love, Robin

[@lloydshaw6534]

Regarding the Vibration Plates, you were being scammed by them not giving full disclosure. I am sorry but the " 10 mins and stand there and wobble side-to-side zero effort workout " is a SCAM . A bald faced lie. And will only stop you from ever getting the results you could have gotten. I am not exaggerating when I say these people have turned this technology into a joke, all but destroying all the original good work it was designed to do. Eg .... The position shown on this video to hook you in, was originally designed for those recovering from a stroke and to help regain your balance ( proprioception ). And was proven to work faster than normal manual rehab. But it is important to note, it only worked on lower frequencies. Too fast and the signal from the muscles to the brain only made its way to the base of the spine. The idea of telling people to stand on the machine and wind up the speed came from MARKETERS. Trying to sell machines to people with obesity issues and no motivation to move. Those always looking for the magic pill solution. Please note: Much of the rehab and massage positions will help with general rehab and circulation issues. But fat% loss or quality muscle / bone gain is where they cross the line into scammer territory. Just ponder this, if passive vibration entering the body worked like that, all truck drivers would be shredded. ( Yes, sometimes comedy gets the message across in a manner you can not deny.) Think about it, what can you do for 10 mins straight and not even feel tired and it gives you amazing results. Seriously folks, you KNOW it is a scam..

which one do you use

[@minkmink3110]

@@lisaalfandary732 I have two. One is smaller, lighter and more portable if I want to take it with me on road trips.. its the Fitrx. I bought it on the Walmart website and it was very reasonably priced. It was my first one and I love it. The second one is a Lifepro Rumblex 3D curve. Its big and quite cumbersome to move around but if your keeping it in one spot that shouldn't matter. This has many different types of Oscillation selections etc. Its more expensive too. I do nearly a whole workout using my dumbells and fitbands on these things. I took my time in the beginning just starting with myself on it then did bodyweight moves. Then I began adding weight.

I bought my vibration plate machine on Amazon in November 2022 and have been using it ever since. I am 84 diagnosed with osteoporosis a few years back. When I first started on the machine I had to hold onto the stand and use the lowest setting. Now I use it with no holding on and on the highest setting. My balance is great and I feel SO much better than I did two years ago. More energy for sure. No night cramps in my legs any longer. My knees don't hurt now. I can now do squats and lift weights. I use it every day and just am so happy I read about it online. Made my life so much better. 🥰

At 55 with hypothyroidism and menopause I was racked with muscle and joint pain, to the point that I was afraid to change position in bed. I found a vibration plate in a charity shop (thrift store) for £10. Let me tell you, it has saved my life. 15 mins a day and I am moving about like a young woman. I stopped using it for a few months and everything slowly came back, started using it again and I'm fit again. So I 100% know, the plate is the cure for me.

I’m losing weight and inches , and feel the difference in my strength.

I used a vibration table booth at my gym that combined Infrared light therapy along with it. Also had a great sound system and it was very immersive and soothing. I had a certain workout that I did one week that completely locked up my upper back and shoulders... the tenseness was really bad. I remembered the vibration machine and did it before my next workout(while I was still quite wracked with the upper back pain) and BOOM! it was gone! Crazy that I was putting up with this pain when a little joggling was all I needed. I just ordered a vibration plate for at home... really looking forward to using it for warmup before working out at home. Looking forward to your update

@@TheScienceofSelfCare It can potentiate any small amount of exercise such as walking or riding a short time on my “magnetic resistance” exercise bike. Magnetic resistance makes a huge difference compared to a leather strap rubbing against a metal flywheel on an exercise bike. Perhaps you can make a video on the difference between a magnetic resistance exercise bike, old-school leather strap resistances, and some modern alternatives that may be just as smooth or even better than magnetic resistance exercise bikes. With Modern technology, it may be worth going over the topic so someone doesn’t have to waste as much money as I did on an expensive leather belt strap resistance exercise bike. I’m 62, so that’s my non-excuse and I’m sticking with it! ps… While standing up on my vibrating plate I pushed the tips of my fingers on the outside of my thighs as far down as I could reach and it gave my upper body and of course my arms a much better vibration! A thick foam matt or foam rubber pieces are strongly advisable under the legs, especially if you have people living beneath you. I always have something to grab and stabilize myself while I'm using it especially when I finish. Someone may swear that it’s not working until they step off of it and realize they are experiencing a significant rise in lactic acid levels. I walk afterward to burn that off. It feels like you just got off of a roller coaster, so prepare something to hold on to! Obviously, the better shape you are in you will have fewer issues with recovery, if not walk it off.

I just happened upon this video, thanks to the almighty algorithm. I use the total body vibration unit that made by the company VibePlate for the X3 Bar variable resistance system. They call it the GH Accelerator, because, in addition to the many benefits you mentioned, it boosts human growth hormone. I have no way of tracking any of those stated benefits but the combination of the vibration plate used in conjunction with the their resistance band training system is fantastic. Me and my clients love it

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Thanks for the rec! I'll definitely have a look. Nothing I love more than testing health and fitness products hehe

[@lloydshaw6534]

FYI....The HGH research was done by a Dr Bosco ( an athletic coach and innovator ) on a machine that unfortunately is a lot more powerful than the one you use. ( not frequency or amplitude, actual KN value .... Aka ... How heavy the vibration is ) It was this higher KN value that caused a 360% increase in HGH. In all his old research that figure was similar. It is why that research has not been replicated and will not be from the machine you are using ( ask to see the research ) We know it was the KN value, because as soon as others copied the frequency and amplitude, but a much lighter vibration, the results all but disappeared. Also Power Plate had an identical problem when they did their first tests at a German University on their original steel unit, with similar results, but when they went to fiberglass not only did they fail to record such changes, but users complained the machines felt weak. ( that is why they got people to start jumping around on the machines to hide that problem ) But by then they had moved the factory from Holland to China and had pumped out thousands of cheaper to produce machines, but in tests showed it had lost over 70% of its energy. Many companies steal the old research and attach it to their machine, of course not telling people the full story. That means for most people it over-promises and under-delivers. .

A friend of mine has one for several years. She got for blood circulation. At first she used it sparingly, then she needed knee surgery and had to loose weight first. She went regularly on the standing machine, lost the weight +required and felt great again. Now I am trying to get a client to get one due to excessive wheelchair sitting.

[@kenfreeman8888]

I enjoy mine in two main ways: standing for energy and exercise, and sitting down with my feet on mine for a relaxing foot massage before bed.

Just now finding your video. Rachel mentioned you and I came over to see what she was referring to. I haven't searched your other videos of the 6 months follow up to see what your results were but I am just sharing here on this video because you asked. I had used Whole Body Vibration at the Commercial Studio level around 10 to 12 years ago. I found it to be too jarring, and I got plantar fasciitis and had pain. So I quit. I think it was because the power setting on the commercial ones was just too strong. Last week, 5 days ago I bought a Lifepro. I have used it everyday and I love the 1 setting and how it makes me feel. I feel like it calms my nervous system and relaxes me. I've been rebounding every day for the past 327 days in a row and I want to keep doing that and incorporate the vibration plate as well. I'll be posting my results as well. I am gonna get a DEXA Scan next week or the following and see where I am after 1 year of rebounding daily. I've subscribed to your channel so now I'll be able to keep up with your videos. Thanks a bunch. Take care! Lydia

[@AlmaKellyDunn]

I have a life pro waver. Had it for about6 mos. Not using as much as what I hear others do. Will start using 10 min a day and update later

[@NathanSalapong]

Never heard of this before but it seems interesting. If something works for you but doesn't have concrete proven benefits backed by science, I still support it. I suppose the premise of your channel includes science but I like your approach of testing it out and reporting the results

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Thanks Nathan! That really means a lot. It's only in the last ten years that scientists are taking mindfulness and meditation really seriously because there previously wasn't any concrete evidence to support the physiological benefits of these practices. So I always like to keep an open mind to things that are not yet well understood or studied. :)

[@kevintse2870]

Found this a little late. I did a really deep dive into vibrations and their effects on bone density. The tests have shown extremely scattered results. Copilot has also stated (didn’t verify source) that some vibrations such as sitting in cranes all day every day can CAUSE osteoporosis, though now upon reflection it seems the sitting might have caused more osteoporosis than the vibrations. Somehow miraculously, thus vibration belt called OsteoBoost received FDA Approval for osteoporosis. This was very shocking for me given the mixed results in other independent tests. Maybe OsteoBoost got really lucky with the testing.

[@warthog733]

The (max 30 minutes) a day on a vibration plate is vastly different to eight (or more) hours a day on vibrating heavy equipment. Apples and oranges.

[@michellemoore2329]

I jested started using my VP again. I’m firmer and have less cellulite. I really like how it makes me feel

[@jmbisme]

My neighbor gave me hers. I have been using it for about 4 days and i feel like my back hurts a bit less. I plan to keep it up to see if it makes a big difference.

[@om-nj2hw]

I love my lifepro vibration plate, are you going to do an update?

[@lorirodriquez6100]

I bought a live pro about qla year ago and never use it but really want to start. I need to lose 30-35lbs have you found got routines to follow with it?

[@skybaby444]

I bought mine on TikTok for $100 and it’s great an it’s pink, my favorite color.

[@SookieLuxe444]

When I was a kid we used to go to the Quapaw bathhouse in Hot Springs Arkansas and they used to have this gym inside the bath houses and it had this exercising machine that you would strap this thing around your waist and it would shake the living shit out of you that’s what that reminds me of an old Timey exercise machine.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Have you ever used a whole body vibration plate??

[@brittaphillips5184]

I bought one but never used it consistently / wasn't sure how to use it. But I just started using mine again today! So psyched to see your post about it. I bought the Turbo 3D Vibration Plate for $250

[@Snowsea-gs4wu]

I am using a bungee rebounder which is much cheaper and while not the same thing my research (and wallet) made me come to the conclusion that they are very similar! LOL!

[@methodologies_of_care]

excited about the update!

[@zenakassab5455]

i’m going to try mine thanks

[@Rachel-km9xp]

It is very beneficial for lymphatic drainage.

[@beckslyn]

My parents have a vibration plate and have had it for 8-9 + years. I used to play college softball and had transitioned to playing slow pitch softball. I would drop off our little guy to hang out with my parents while my husband and I would got to the fields and play. I would stay on the plate for 5-10 mins before going to the field and the days that I did (I would never warm up - I know, I know) but I would hit farther and running bases were easier than if I did not use the vibration plate. I also have restless legs and I feel like it helps tremendously to get my blood flowing throughout my body. I would be interested to see a study of someone lifting at their max weight, then trying the vibration plate for 10 mins and doing it again. Maybe it helps unleash our muscles and increase our strength - maybe due to increased blood flow? Just a theory but I'd love someone to run a study!

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

So cool!! Thanks for sharing your experience. Very interesting. I can totally relate to the restless legs! I can’t wait to get a vibration plate again. I’ve been living nomadically and haven’t had access to one. I miss it! And will certainly report back on my experience. ❤️

[@carolynnmathisen8754]

I just got a small vibration plate and I’m going to monitor my weight, pain, and dexa

[@TomisaLami]

Did she ever make the update video? I can’t find it anywhere anywhere

[@raquelwiltshire8088]

You look caring and warm

[@alicelovaofficial]

Wow, I want it! Thank you for sharing this story. I definitely would buy this in the next month. I really love caring for my health.

[@sallywarfield-cy4tw]

I just bought one! When you do you're follow-up, I'd be interested to know how you feel with different time intervals. Do you get more benefit from 30 min vs 10 min, for example. So far I've been doing mine for 10 min/day and I've noticed that the tension and pain I hold in my calves and knees (I'm hypermobile and have a lot of connective tissue pain) is significantly less.

[@justinbrown2637]

I believe it would improve circulation and stimulate your lymph system it which helps with detoxification. Also stimulate the vagus nerve which could be a stress reliever

[@mason4490]

I first encountered a strong machine like this at the Cal State fair i the 80's. There were many set up near the entrance/exit, and it was a very popular stop for people after they'd been walking all over the fairgrounds all day, and you could really feel the vibrations gong to work thru your feet, calves and thighs. Recalling this, I got a machine myself a couple of years ago, which has three types of vibration, but is not as strong of a basic vibration as the ones I encountered at the fair. My only complaint- which may or may not lay fault with the machine- is that I began to get episodes of vertigo. It was diagnosed as weakness or damage to one side of my vestibular system. Could the shaking have brought on that result? I don't know. I am continuing use of the machine, but at a lower vibration intensity than I had been. I would like to know if others found themselves in the same circumstances.

[@AS-gx4qg]

You fail to recognise that not all vibration plates are equal. Most studies are done with machines that can deliver 10G. So the 200$ ones are probably just a good massage tool. I just ordered the cheapest one that can deliver 10G (verified) and that is the hypervibe. It does cost 1000 usd though.

[@sandyu9949]

Sonix vibration is next level

[@Ke-qv3md]

Yes I have one but probably not a real good one. Mine only vibrates up and down and not sideway. The one I wanted was more expensive so I had to go with a cheaper one. Rock Solid is the one I got, if it would go sideways it would be great. But I am hoping it will increase my bone density as I have osteopenia. I have had mine for ar least 7 years. But did not really use it much and am starting to use it more time get in shape

[@barbaraberg6078]

I own one and l love it

[@lacharmer441]

Did you ever post an update? Can’t find it.

[@Vixs18]

Which products are you testing? I’m buying a LifePro Rumbler that’s able to be programmed to the correct 30mgz and .3g that is recommended by the latest heavy metadata study in Osteoperosis International March 2023. It’s only $399 instead of $3,200 or so for the MedLiv.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Cool! Thanks Vicky! Maybe I should be testing this one. Do you have a link to the study by chance? x

[@felrau1]

I bought a Lifepro Rumbler recently and really love it!

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

@@felrau1 thanks for sharing!!

[@va3lim]

I recently bought the Lifepro Rumblex Max 4D during Amazon Prime Day for around $245 (before tax), it's a very powerful vibration machine with 3 motors for oscillating, lateral and pulsating, it comes with LIFETIME warranty and can supports up to 500 lbs user weight. I bought this machine to improve my health as I am over 60 yrs old and my work requires me to sit for 8 hours a day. After using the machine, it seems to improve my blood circulation, because I feel more energetic. My knees & legs feel stronger, I don't feel the pain anymore from my knees when walking up & down on the stairs. Personally I think it's worth buying if you don't like to do heavy exercises. Please note if you're a beginner, please start on slow speed and limit yourself to 10 minutes per workout. It could give you headache and dizziness if you are not use to it yet or if you do not use it properly .

[@lloydshaw6534]

" 30mgz and .3g that is recommended by the latest heavy metadata study " You may want to know most of the studies used in the meta analyses were bogus, done by the academics who own the company trying to sell them. The machine will work, but the "secret frequency and g-force setting " is all marketing. In reality the guy who founded the company Juvant ( Dr Clinton Rubin ) painted himself into a corner years ago by doing this. He put some mice on a platform the same size as a bathroom scale. With a very light vibration, based on his idea that by using micro-vibrations you could "sing" to bone cells and make them multiply. He got this idea from something called a "Bone phone" . Which is basically a device attached to your bone in your wrist that when vibrated could be picked up by the 3 tiny bones in your ear and turned into sound . Cool idea, if it worked. So what went wrong ? Well the mouse not only grew bone but also muscle and lost fat. A result that blew everyone away and got the scientific community talking, while Dr Rubin told everybody he had found the secret frequency and g-force on his first try. One HUGE mistake. Instead of actually measuring what the mouse was going through physically and increasing it in scale for a humans mass. He just put people on exactly the same plate. Made thousands of them as they are VERY cheap to make ( basically a plate with a small vibrator motor or speaker coil attached inside. ) But it still cost him and his business mates a lot to set up manufacturing. Then all the subsequent trials failed. The fact is, the mice was not just being lightly vibrated, but going through an earthquake simulator for 20 mins a day. And clinging on for dear life while repeating thousands of eccentric contraction. As in they were doing the most hardcore VT session ever trialed by any animal or human. How do I know this? ..., I was in contact with Clinton the whole time. And tried to warn him, but he just would not listen, and when I witnessed what he did ( cover it up ) and on top of that try to save his company by telling people every other machine made will harm you, only his was safe, I realized he had crossed a line of desperation you do not come back from. Note: 15 years later even though all the research shows his scare-tactic marketing was all lies, ( he knew the others were safe, as by then they had been used in medical work for years ) he refuses to retract it or admit he was wrong. ( or millions of people around the world over the last 20 years would be maimed or dead by now ) While he had to take down the claims of total body composition changes and once again showing his true colors ( it was never about actually helping people, but $$$ and ego ) , told the press NO machine can do it. And to make matters worse, I know HGH was given in one study to Woman but was not disclosed. How does this apply to you ? Just don't worry about turning the machine up or down, just worry about good form. Bone grows due to simple stress, and DO NOT just stand on it and think it will grow magically everywhere, you have to stress ALL the bones in your body. I know the above sound like a joke, but it is not, unfortunately the industry is full of stories just like it. Confusion and dodgy academics are a marketers dream. So they have tried in every way possible to dup the consumer. Why you take it seriously is because if you think you are helping yourself but doing nothing profound, you will not do the things needed to protect yourself. Eg.... Just standing on the machine will do nothing for your bone in your upper body ( only some very small areas in your hips, but not even in the place people fracture ) , and many deaths are caused each year by wrist fractures from falls ( blood clots or infections ). Follow this program as close as you can,( especially number 1 -- 5 ) and it will do what you need, in more ways than you can imagine. Note: Only the blue pictures and the aim is 1 minute of perfection on each exercise pose. The massages, do as much as you want. And use a couch to hold onto to help you . www.vibration-training-advice.com/consumer-guide-and-safety-program/lineal-and-pivotal-safety-programs/lineal-program Any questions, ask away. I will never BS you. How bone actually grows in very simple terms....

[@eedom69]

Haven't used one. Looks cool a flat table you could also lie on would be cool. was looking for some vibration pad I could wrap around injured joints to help them heal. know of any?

[@sarahcronshaw3088]

I wonder how you are getting on? Will you be doing another update. I’ve used one for a couple of years which I coincide with weights and floor workouts. I love using it to relax my muscles and do weights.

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Hi Sarah, thanks for sharing! Unfortunately I have had to put this experiment on pause since I’m living out of a suitcase this year! Next year I plan to pick it back up when I’m settled in one place. :) hard to travel with a heavy plate..! I’d love to know: have you noticed any specific effects using your vibration plate for several years??

[@jskweres2]

Do you have an updated video related to this?

[@SumGirls]

I just got a Power Plate. I am excited and your video is making me even more excited. Thank you! 💜💜💜

[@Aright231]

Does anybody have experience with the Vibra Tec system? Just ordered one but I’m definitely not new to this. Been using them for years.

[@ALifeofLearning]

I remember seeing these kinds of devices on TelSell 😂 My mom programmed my brain to think anything on TelSell cannot possibly be functional so I am very curious how this experiment is gonna go!

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

haha my dad programmed my brain to think that unless there is a double-blind randomized control trial with statistically significant results to back up the claims.. its garbage. Let's see how these next months go! :)

[@dob8240]

New here, can you teach more on how this helpd pre- menopause?❤❤❤

[@basernishant]

definatly this machine is not much use because for fat reduce but i think there is some mental relaxation and blood circulation.

[@katjaander]

It’s been 6 months how’s it been!! Which one did you end up buying on Amazon? I use the AXV every morning and do my NuFace routine lol

[@TheScienceofSelfCare]

Sadly I have had to pause this because of extensive moving and traveling (currently living out of a suitcase lol). But I’m going to get a new plate when I settle into a home in a few months. Do you like your AXV?? I also use my nuface every morning :) love the idea of combining them!!

[@itsagoodday2165]

Would you say this is comparable to rebounding?

[@warthog733]

Better. I turned on a friend who was using a rebounder to vibration plate. He says the plate is much better...

[@amazotron3471]

i watched this and went eagerly to your channel to find part 2 now that 7 months have passed and its not there!!! Would you follow up on this please?

[@jd1135]

Does anyone remember in the movie ‘Blast from the Past’ when they were down below in the bomb shelter and the mom was using that machine with like a thick wide rubber band looked like exercise bands. Well that was wrapped around he waist and back and it vibrated her. She said it was good for fat or weight loss. It basically was a stand up vibration plate with the band around he waist. Also she said it feels like it just does something mentally for her. Well our brains are muscles right. So it would be good for your brain/brain health as well. I would think. I share the same feelings for it. Looked at them a while ago. Just so pricey and want an actual good one.

[@annieknight71]

By the way I’m 78 years old and can’t do much other exercise. My arches hurt when I stand 20 - 30 minutes.
