WBV machines offer a variety of benefits, but which exercises and applications are best for a commercial setting?  The scientific evidence shows that WBV is a useful and effective modality in rehabilitation, general fitness and sports performance.  The technology behind WBV has been proven with over 40 years of research. 

WBV training contracts virtually 100% of the muscle fibers of any particular muscle, whereas weight resistance training only fires about 40%. WBV fires not one muscle group after the other, as typical weight training does, but the whole body neuromusculoskeletal system is being stimulated at once. That is why with WBV your training time is significantly reduced.

Strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination are all key aspects to athletic performance. WBV can be used to stimulate an athlete’s adaptive response to performance‐driven activities. WBV training routines can be as challenging as you make them and the versatility of the vibrating platform allows you to target any part of the body. Athletes who train with WBV are faster, more explosive, less prone to injury, and ultimately more competitive.

To make WBV effective in your facility it is important to educate the staff on WBV and how to use it within a fitness program.  With education and direction such as posters, wall charts, and videos members can safely and effectively use WBV on their own.  Also, personal trainers may be an important part of the usefulness of WBV in fitness centers.  Clients will not only be better educated on the uses of WBV when working with a trainer, but other members who see the product in use are more likely to follow suit.  

Whole Body Vibration is a sensible choice because it is a safe, fast, and effective.  Better results in less time!  It’s a must have for all fitness centers.
