    T-Zone Vibration Machines - Do they work?

    Ok, I've really hated these machines for a while now, but I have so many people asking me if they work. I can't seem to find any articles on them. If there are already threads existing could someone post the link?

    Otherwise, how can a shaker help someone lose fat? I'm thinking if it seems too good to be true, it usually is.

    I'm a weightlifter but because I spend so much time at the gym, I have these questions asked to me all the time.

    Your thoughts?

    I'm hearing many people say "So - and - so lost X inches with the T-zone machine" and it's becoming a trend here in Eastern Canada.

    I'd just like to find some resources to better educate myself on this topic so I can relay the information to those who come to me with questions.

    I know all of this, but I'd love to see some credible sources to back up my claims. So far, I can't find anything against, and can't find much for, either.

    There you go;
    http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/te...machines_N.htm

    Fitness industy and people making money off them love them.

    Credible scientists worry about bone/cartilidge damage, hearing/vision loss and brain damage.

    IMO another excuse of an exercise for lazy people. End of.

    Edit; all that took was 'vibration plate exercise' typed into google, like the 4th result

    Mays didn't beat that hooker up. He just sold her a prototype of the vibratin' plate and she forgot to read the instructions before using it.

    I sell a number of different vibration fitness machine, mainly to senior citizens and people with serious diabetes but also to athletes as well.

    Vibration Exercise works very well in intensifying basic training moves as well as stimulating the muscle. Its especially useful for folks with diabetes because it greatly improves and increases blood circulation.

    A lot of athletes buy the regular vibration plate which is essentially a vibrating platform with no handles or attachments. They simply stand on the platform and perform regular exercises like barball curls, squats, etc. It adds a whole new dimension on things.

    I don't know Ironwill2008. Based on these photos, I would say the hooker kicked his ass.

    What about claims by doctors and scientists of negative longterm effects like cartilage damage etc?

    How can you 'shake away' fat? This is the biggest fad I've seen here since Pogs.

    Exercise itself has risks of cartilage damage and injury. However the machines I sell have multiple settings from low to high.

    As far as it being a fad. It actually is medical treatment in Korea for diabetics and people with muscle wasting diseases that made its way into the fitness industry

    As far as it being a fad. It actually is medical treatment in Korea for diabetics and people with muscle wasting diseases that made its way into the fitness industry[
    Yeah, and we all know how Korea is leading the world in cutting edge technology...

    I know you have a product to sell and will butter it up, but there are medical personnel/scientists claiming it can have detrimental long-term side effects -- particularly with joints. While initially it 'feels good', there are apparently longterm side-effects.

    What would you say to that?

    I say that the risk of joint damage is the same as doing regular exercises. However many long term studies have shown no joint damage whatsoever from the use of these machines.

    There's always going to be some scientist telling you not to do this or that with anything. Part of life

    Yeah if it wasn't for those meddling scientists we'd still all be encouraging children to smoke 40 a day and snort opium like it was going out of fashion like people did in the 1900's.

    Pesky scientists. Ruin all the good things.

    People have choices in life including in what equipment they wish to train on. As a dealer, I have to provide them with variety of exercise machine options that's available regardless as to whether I use them myself or not. That includes vibration exercise and 300 other exercise machines I sell.

    This is gone off topic now. I know your opinion is biased since you're out to make a buck. However, with no longterm studies (that I can find) to prove otherwise -- and from the information I can gather, these machines are a total waste of money.

    Everyone I know that has bought one or tried one, praised it to the heavens for the first couple of weeks, then were extremely disappointed when they noticed little or no results, joints-wise or for an aid in fat-loss.

    Soloflex offers it. I know how people feel about BowFlex, but I knew 2 guys in junior high and high school who got hyooogee on them.

    My brother has the Soloflex vibration bench alone. I used it with my dumbells and didn't like it. If you stand on it for about 20 minutes you will sweat. It is better than 20 minutes of sitting on the couch and eating Cheetos, but I'd rather lift weights or do aerobics.

    If you want to lose fat and you are lazy, try the infrared saunas. According to them, you will shed water weight, although which you will gain back from drinking water, however you will burn calories which is the benefit.
