Power Plate®

Ever feel like there just aren't enough hours in the day to fit in exercise? You know that it's important for your overall health and wellness, but sometimes there are just too many other things on your schedule. A great alternative for people who enjoy an active lifestyle, but don't have the time for a lengthy work-out three or more times a week are Power Plate® machines.

Power Plate® machines work by using whole body vibration technology to essentially speed up the exercise process giving maximized results in a much shorter amount of time. When different parts of the body are put in contact with the platform in various exercise positions, vibrations are transferred to the working muscles. By holding a pose for up to 60 seconds at a time, multiple muscle groups are activated simultaneously to stretch, tone and strengthen. You can get a full workout in just 20 minutes, three times a week.

Bodybugg

Some of you may watch the Biggest Loser on NBC and you might have noticed the contestants wear an interesting accessory on their arm. This little device you see wrapped around their left arm (right arm if you are remembering the old model), is called the Bodybugg. The Bodybugg is piece of equipment sold by Apex Fitness Group and 24 Hour Fitness and it is used to monitor the amount of calories a user burns in a day. Basically, the Bodybugg is an advanced pedometer that uses four sensors and a well designed on-line program to tell you how many calories you burn on a daily basis. The four sensors detect: movement, core temperature, skin temperature and moisture on the skin. These four feedback mechanisms, coupled with an on-line program, combine the Bodybugg information with some formulas and, voila! You have your calories burned in day. You can wear the armband all day long, except in the shower or when you participate in water activities. So how does this help you lose weight?
