How many times do I have to train on the Vibrogym in a week? Will I lose weight when train on the Vibrogym? The principle of energy balance is such that the calories consumed during a day would have to be less than those expended to start a reduction in fat stores. Training with the Vibrogym has a large influence on many of the processes involved with losing weight though so you will most likely lose fat stores while training on the machine. This will depend on how fit you already are - the more fatty tissue you have in the body, the more you will lose. Training on the Vibrogym has been shown to increase metabolism, which means you will burn more calories while exercising and the hormones produced with vibration training also have a significant influence on reducing fatty tissue. However, as with any training modality you will have to control your calorie intake to see any changes. It is important to note that the reduction in fat stores will not necessarily be reflected with a loss of body weight. The increases in bone density obtained with vibration training may cause an increase in weight. Furthermore as muscle tissue is heavier than fatty tissue, the increases in muscle stores that occurs with Vibrogym training will also cause you to put weight on, although your body tone will visibly improve. Are there specific exercises for the stomach, thighs, buttocks and lower back? Many of the exercises on the Vibrogym posters are ideal for working the above areas. Just look at the diagrams on each position indicating which muscles are recruited during the exercise. The muscles used are highlighted in red. Also, keep checking this web site for any new exercises developed for these parts of the body. What are the massage exercises used for? The massage on the Vibrogym enhances circulation considerably, which can be seen by the slight redness on the skin and felt by a tingly, warm sensation. This in turn increases lymphatic drainage and reinforces collagen, which together with the increases Human Growth Hormone production, contributes significantly to combating cellulite. You can use the massage exercises as part of your warm-up program prior to a workout to warm up your muscles and you can use the Vibrogym massage after your workout to help remove training's waste products. How many times do I have to train on the Vibrogym in a week? For optimal results it is best to use the Vibrogym at least 3 times a week, although even using the machine once a week would be beneficial. We advise training 3 times a week, as frequent stimulation of your body will help you achieve your training goal much sooner. To achieve a training effect you have to keep overloading the body so it adapts to withstand extra stimuli. If you only train occasionally your body will not have the need to adapt so your training will not have any effect. close window
