Power Plate Brisbane    

 

 

 

The Power-Plate programme conducted in the Green Apple has been designed to provide safe, effective physical activity which has proven results.
 
Power-Plate is a machine with a platform which vibrates at a high frequency to initiate biomechanical muscle stimulation.  During the 1970’s, Russian astronauts were able to stay four times longer in space with vibration training.  With the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 knowledge of vibration training spread all over the world.
 
Since 1990, vibration training has been used by Olympic athletes to improve performance.  There has also been significant medical research into the benefits of vibration training.
 
Benefits include:
·         Accelerated training time
·         Improvements in bone density
·         Increase in strength, especially legs (which is important in elderly people because of the strong correlation between poor leg strength and death).
·         Increased vascular response
·         Better balance
·         Improved neuromuscular response
·         Increased power
·         Connective tissue stimulation
 
Power-Plate vibrations are multi-directional – up and down, backwards and forwards, side to side.
 
The amplitude of the vibration is the height the vibrating platform moving up and down.  Amplitude is expressed as HIGH and LOW.  When set on HIGH, the platform lifts to a greater height and this is why all beginner programmes are set using the lower amplitude, to allow the body to adjust to vibration training safely.
 
The progression of vibrations is the number of times the Power-Plate moves up and down. Frequency is expressed in Hz (e.g. 30Hz, 35Hz, or 50 Hz).  Other settings can be achieved by using the “manual” method e.g. 25Hz can be set up manually.
 
Conditions for Power-Plate use at the Green Apple Wellness Centre
There is no deviation from the set programmes without permission from Management.  Exercise may be reduced, modified or omitted where necessary, but no additional exercises can be added during a session.
