Dubai, UAE (PRWEB) March 21, 2005 -- The Quay Health Club at Madinat Jumeirah --the Arabian Resort- Dubai, United Arab Emirates is the first resort in Dubai to offer the latest technological advancement in health and fitness. The Power-Plate is a rapidly vibrating platform on which exercises are performed. This "space age" equipment (used by the Russian Cosmonauts) is now also used by Olympic and professional athletes, celebrities, VIPs and even sport haters.
Power-Plate generates vibrations that are transferred from the platform to the body. And these vibrations train every muscle group of the entire body. Standing on power-Plate makes the body automatically adjust to these mechanical stimuli. Muscles will contract and expand 30 to 50 times per second, depending on vibration selected.

"Vibration Technology has been so interesting to me as a new technology that I have integrated it in all my clients training programs. People just walk off this unit and feel juiced. So that's been great, especially if it's a deconditioned person. For deconditioned people they're able to become aware of different parts of their musculature. I love it. I think it's exciting and new and I throw every body one it. "Functional training" has become such a buzzword. This is the ultimate way to functional train."
Greg Isaacs, Celebrity trainer
"I have found Power Plate to deliver the essence of Plyometric training in a safe and effective manner for both training and rehabilitation. The results have been predictable and directly related to the research. Our athletes have experienced strength gains, reactivity increases and increases in range of motion."
