HOW VIBRATION EXERCISE MACHINES WORK

• The user of a vibration exercise machine stands on a platform and maintains his balance as the machine vibrates. They stress the muscles much less than do traditional workout techniques, and are designed to work specific muscle groups.
  
  

POINTS OF COMPARISON

• When comparing different vibration exercise machines, see if the platform is made of steel or plastic; plastic platforms tend to break. The better machines have more vibration settings available, as well as automatic programs. Machines have weight limits as well. Also compare warranties available on different machines.
