yep...10 mins is equivalent to 1 hr of aerobic activity....improves bone density too. My mum and dad have one...my sister has one. My sister has lost 10kgs - gets on it for 10 mins a day. my mum and dad have only had theirs 4 weeks. In both cases theyve purchased not necessarily to loose weight, but to tone.
They bougth from TVSN (foxtel shopping channel).
They explained it on tele like imagine you are running down a slippery grassy hill, and you are about to fall, you tighten your leg muscles to stop the fall - pretty much what the vib. platform does for 10 mins constantly. Your muscles are contracting for that amount of time (and at what speed you decide).
Ive had a '10 min' go on mums....and i definetly feel that endorphine rush when i get off it - you know that feeling you have after doing a good workout, swimming a few laps ??? it defn got the blood pumping around my legs...and the next day my legs were stiff and sore, just like they would be from a netball game or something...whilst im interested in it...i kinda like the ole traditional way of exercising, be that a game of netball or a few laps of a pool....but thats just me...
