Plate® is
a form of vibration training that offers a new and
exciting way to
build muscle, flexibility and bone density.
At studioEH1 we offer
fitness sessions and Personal Training for

busy or too bored to spend an hour in the gym…the
list is endless!
Performing an unlimited number of exercises in our exclusive studios, on a Power Plate®, under qualified instruction, for just 25 mins, two to three times a week, will provide a host of benefits, over a relatively short time period, including:
-
Improved muscle tone and definition
-
Increased muscle strength and flexibility
-
Increased core strength
-
Decreased cellulite
-
Increased bone density
-
Reduced pain and soreness and faster recovery
(post-training and injury rehab)
Exercises include: Squats, lunges, triceps dips, biceps curls, maintenance
and developmental stretches…and don’t forget the Massage
and Relaxation at the end which makes it all the more worthwhile!
An Alternative Approach. TRY IT – IT
WORKS!
Power Plate® is an excellent alternative for
people who enjoy an active lifestyle, but are too
busy to get to the gym for an hour, three or four times a week. It
is designed to enhance
sports training as both, a supplement to and an alternative
form of training.
Traditional training uses approximately 60% of your body’s muscle
fibre. Vibration training on a Power
Plate®, uses between 90 and
95% muscle fibre. This is because the vibration is stimulating your
involuntary muscles (in addition to your voluntary muscles) – creating
a stretch reflex. Therefore, the combination of
the stimulus from the vibration and the effort you put in, enables
you to achieve similar results over a much shorter period of time.
