The latest buzz in fitness is focused on vibration training, also known as whole body vibration (WBV) or acceleration training. It’s quickly gaining the attention of trainers, celebrities and athletes, earning the endorsement of Clint Eastwood, Courtney Cox, Sting, Serena Williams, Andre Ethier and others.   Before you imagine the vibrating exercise belts of the 1950s, know that this is not that machine. Vibration training uses a plate or platform that oscillates in 3D (shaking sideways, front to back and up and down). A person can perform exercises, stretches and workout routines on the machine. The plate uses speed and contracts muscles faster, creating more blood flow. The machine can activate muscle contractions between 25 and 50 times per second. The beauty of vibration training is that it delivers an intense workout, but the user recovers quickly. The increased blood flow can minimize the lactic acid build up that causes a burning sensation during a workout. Many are shocked at how difficult performing exercises on the machine can be. Because of the added challenge of exercising while shaking, the user can work out for a shorter amount of time but still see results.   Vibration training can be a great option for older adults or people recovering from an injury since it improves stability and core strength. The Mayo Clinic [has cited research](http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/whole-body-vibration/AN01598) that shows that acceleration training, when performed correctly, can lessen back pain, improve balance in older adults and increase bone density. Additional research has shown positive links between vibration training and circulation, flexibility, cellulite reduction and muscle mass.   We are currently selling vibration platforms in our stores and on our website.
