Acceleration Training™ on Power Plate® equipment offers a host of benefits, ranging from an immediate improvement in blood circulation, to a variety of other measurable outcomes: such as increased muscle strength and flexibility, improved range of motion, decreased cellulite, increased bone mineral density, reduced pain and soreness and faster recovery.
Acceleration Training with Power Plate machines creates instability in the human body, as with each vibration the body is forced to perform reflexive muscle actions, multiple times per second. Furthermore, these contractions must work in multiple dimensions as the Power Plate machines actually oscillate in all three planes, exactly as the human body is designed to do. The net result is an incredible improvement in force production, or strength and power.
Power Plate machines use the principles of Acceleration Training™ to stimulate the body’s natural response to vibration. These vibrations transmit waves of energy throughout the body, activating muscle contractions between 25 and 50 times per second, enhancing overall performance in sessions as short as 15 minutes a day, 3 times a week.
Off court training is as important to me as on court. With the Power Plate, I’m able to accelerate my off court training and maximize the benefits.
After my knee injury, Sue Falsone put me on a physical therapy program using the Power Plate machines at Athletes’ Performance. I was amazed by how fast I was able to recover. As with any professional athlete, I need to be as close to 100% all the time, and my approach is to do whatever I can to get back to peak performance as fast as possible. Power Plate Acceleration Training was the answer for my knee rehab and the vibrations really allowed me to isolate the muscles around the knee without stress. I use a Power Plate machine at home, on the road and in the Dodger’s clubhouse as part of my daily routine. The vibrations get my muscles firing right away, and whether I am using a Power Plate machine for pre-game muscle activation, workouts or my post-game cool down ritual, I rely on the technology to keep me operating at my best. Power Plate Acceleration Training has been a game changer for me and I couldn’t be more impressed with the results.
Performing strength exercises isometrically, such as a squat, lunge, pushup or triceps dip, on a Power Plate helps build muscle in a short period of time. According to Idea Health & Fitness Association, studies support the training modality as an effective way to create gains in muscular strength and power. Performing each exercise for 30 to 90 seconds once a day, three times a week induces results.
A study published by the "Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise" journal found that whole-body vibration training, such as that on a Power Plate, is effective for reducing the risk of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women by increasing lumbar bone mineral density and leg strength. Keeping adequate bone density helps stave off osteoporosis and the associated degeneration of body function.
Whole-body vibration training improves flexibility, even in elite athletes. A study in the April 2006 issue of the journal “Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise” conducted by the U.S. Olympic Committee found that vibration training increased range of motion beyond what was attained with static stretching in highly trained male gymnasts. Perform traditional hip, leg and shoulder stretches on the Power Plate to achieve greater flexibility.
