By using this shake plate during workouts, you can vibrate your full body and activate your muscles. This is a great way to further engage your core and improve composition.
Let’s get this out of the way: No, you won’t lose weight from simply standing on this thing, though there may be benefits to that, too — more on that later.
As Matthew Welch, an exercise physiologist at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, previously told HuffPost: “Standing on it isn’t just going to improve your body composition. You’re not going to lose fat just by standing on it. You need to be doing other things.”
Those “other things” include using the plate while performing push-ups, crunches, squats or some other movement. Yoga works, too! Bundling this machine with some resistance bands may also give you a steady workout. The image above may help give you some ideas.
One reviewer named Michele says they love performing exercises with this platform: “Awesome, honestly, the best thing ever. I started with 10 min 5 days a week, now I do 20 mins and incorporate squats, side leg lifts, and arm exercises, then I do 5 mins with just my arms on it. […] This is much softer on my joints and is good for lymph drainage and toning. I’ve been doing it for a month, and my husband just said to me my legs look toned. It really works, you just need to be consistent, like with anything.”
