The Power Plate

Power Plate

has anyone seen this? i saw this recently on the news (I am in Houston and this was developed here by NASA- so maybe that's why it was on the news here?) they interviewed people who were using it and they said it was incredible... i think they said 15 min. on the PowerPlate was the equivalent to a 45 min. traditional workout!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it states that if you have an implanted medical device, then you cannot use it, but our Port is not listed. I am definitely gonna ask my doc next time i see him if this would be ok. just thought i would fish around and see if anyone here has actually used a Power Plate. ???

This thing reminds me of those old movies where the large lady is standing on a platform and a big band is strapped around her bottom, jiggling her for all it is worth. And for $10K, I'm not willing to put my skepticism to the test. But, if a gym had one, I'd give it a whirl.
