Power Plate pro6 - Introduction

Introduction
Power Plate
®
can be used by almost everyone. You can adjust training to your own
level and reduce any burden on your joints, tendons and ligaments. As with every form
of training, the correct use of exercises, adjusted to your personal abilities, will
determine the benets and effects of completing a training session on Power Plate,
while at the same time reducing the risk of injury to the body. We recommend con-
sulting your physician before beginning any new exercise program. For your safety,
please review the product instructions before operating this, or any, functional tool.
If at any time you feel faint, dizzy, nauseous, short of breath or in pain, stop exercising
immediately and consult with your physician.
Body posture, muscle stiffness and muscle tension (i.e. how contracted your muscle
is) are important contributing factors in your training session. If muscles are tensed,
or contracted, they will absorb vibrations to help strengthen and tone those muscles.
Passive or active exercises, such as stretch and massage,can be performed on a
more frequent basis.
Reexive Stabilization exercise should be used on a regular basis, starting with low
intensity, which means low frequency and amplitude settings for short sessions. The
body should be gently stimulated in a way that will allow you to adjust to vibration
training, but will not overload your body. Over time, the intensity and duration can be
increased in the same manner as other progressive training programs. Once the body
has adapted to vibration, the training can be changed or intensied to keep improving
performance.
