Can You Lose Fat With a Power Plate?

Yes. You can lose fat and increase your metabolism. I have seen decent results by combining the Power Plate with other resistance training exercises, such as bodyweight exercises, dumbbells, and resistance bands.

I have not used the Power Plate by itself, but apparently some people have seen some weight loss using only the Power Plate. My guess is, this would involve 3 sessions a week and these are people that had not been exercising, previously.

I like the method I am using, which incorporates other exercises in with the vibration exercises for maximal effect. This circuit training system also elevates the heart rate at the same time you are doing resistance training, making it pretty efficient.

Especially considering the sessions are only 25 minutes long and done twice a week. They can do walking or other forms of exercise on their own.

If all you can do is the vibration platform because of health reasons, you would still get some weight loss and health benefits. If using it at home I would recommend including other things like dumbbells, pushups, resistance tubing, etc.

You can do various pushup variations on your Power Plate, but I don't personally get that much from the upper body exercises using the strap that comes with it. This is where the dumbbells and tubing would come into play.

It also can be used to massage and stretch in various positions and helps you warm up or recover from exercise. These massage and stretching sessions can be done on your "off" days.

You can also use it to massage your legs to help battle cellulite. This increases blood flow to these areas and can help speed up your metabolism. Building lean muscle tissue is obviously important to increasing your metabolism and burning off extra fat.
