After a long Monday I am left with little time to exercise – a perfect time for a little Power Plate workout. I had a fairly intense workout two days ago, so something lighter will do the trick.
If you have heard that a 10-15 minute workout on a vibration platform is the equivalent of a normal workout, it depends on what you are used to.
If you haven’t been exercising for quite some time then you can get some results from 3 of these sessions a week, but if that is all you do, you won’t look anything like your favorite athlete or be mistaken for a fitness model.
Your best results will come from combining it with other forms of resistance training – or you can do a session in between longer workouts, as a maintenance workout.
Like most people, I need a time efficient workout now and then to keep my metabolism elevated. It also serves as a nice break from more intense workouts – it can help you recover faster.
Tonight I combined the vibration platform with some joint mobility movements. Besides being a very joint friendly workout, all the reflex muscle contractions helped increase my circulation and flush out some waste products.
Movement based workouts are good for relieving stress and keeping the mind fresh, something we all could use. I spoke once of “fire and ice training”. This would definitely be a good example of the two extremes – high and low intensity.
Get moving!
