A workout on the vibrostation is equivalent to 1hr in the gym and you can burn up to 350 calories. How it works:
Vibration training was developed in Russia as early as the 1970's and proved highly effective in the success of the National Olympic teams during that decade.
As a result the Russian Space Programme embraced the same technology to counteract the negative effects of weightlessness on muscles and bones (osteoporosis) of its Astronauts.
Today Vibration Training is the 'Buzz' word in the Health and Fitness industry.
Vibrostation works by generating vibrations that are transferred to the body. This process causes a 'myotatic' reflex or a 'stretch' reflex in the muscle being trained.
The muscles involuntarily contract between 30-45 times per second depending on your chosen setting.
An example of a stretch reflex is a reflex tested by the Doctor when they tap a reflex hammer under the knee. The upper leg muscles involuntarily contract 100% automatically.
Almost 100% of the muscles in the body are exercised using vibrostation, unlike conventional training methods that only reach 40-55%.
A complete workout on the vibrostation takes just 10-15 minutes to complete.
The workout requires very little effort and will not cause the user to sweat which makes it the ideal training solution enabling you to go about your daily duties with the minimum of fuss.
