Addressing concerns regarding vibration plates knocking plaque loose
WBV rest needs vary by exercise category
Doing WBV barefoot preferred
Three main categories for WBV usage
Additional benefits of WBV
Ideal WBV protocol for building bone
WBV: Initial discomfort due to improper use or low blood sugar
WBV contraindicated conditions: consider the physiology, not the equipment
Contraindications for WBV
Optimal WBV frequency range for bone stimulation
Adding weighted vest increases WBV workout intensity and effectiveness
Active exercise benefits require 10-20 minutes, three times weekly
Studies show consistent improvement to BMD over time with WBV
WBV sessions needed to start building bone
WBV helps strengthen lower body which is crucial for fall prevention and resilience
WBV improves bone health through microcontractions, force, and circulation
WBV can be overdone but there is a difference between using it for strength or pain and recovery
Whole Body Vibration (WBV) introduction and benefits
Consult your doctor for post-kyphoplasty vibration plate usage
Doing heel drops on vibration plates not recommended
Vibration therapy stimulates bone growth through impact
Standing on machine while lifting weights saves time, but benefits unclear
Experience with power plate, building tolerance, different G forces
Resistance training is more important than vibration machine workouts
PowerPlate is likely safe for people with low bone density
