Exercising

The VB300 vibration platform uses muscular reflex of the body to exercise in a convenient manner that does

not require you to get out of breath. The machine accomplishes this best when you are in a stressed

position, such as a squat posture, and your muscles are working to keep you in that position. When the

oscillating plate moves quickly, your muscles automatically move a small amount to maintain posture,

resulting in efficient muscular exercise.

The vibration platform provides effective exercise, but only if you use it in the recommended exercise

positions. You will get the best results if you bend your knees or arms (depending on exercise position) and

push against the machine platform so your muscles adopt the automatic motion described. Use several

different postures for a few minutes each for a complete workout.

You can also use the vibration platform as a general massager to ease muscle pain and improve circulation.

In this case, do not push hard against the machine, rather let the machine do the work for you.
