Shake Your Way To Fitness With Powerplate!

Hello everyone who is curious about Powerplate! I found this amazing fitness machine during my physical therapy in METAFACTOR WELLNESS. Since I could not run or lift weights because of my back injury, Powerplate saved the day. So, I thank Powerplate for my fast recovery also I did Hydro Threadmill or Underwater Threadmill. 

The idea behind the Powerplate machine is that exercises performed on the vibrating platform will be extra-effective. The vibrations activate reflexive contractions in the muscles and can ramp up your intensity quite effectively.

Would you believe that 10 minutes on the Powerplate is equal to 60 minutes of conventional training?

Powerplate might just be the best kept fitness secret in the present. Plus it is for people of all ages, conditions, and fitness levels because power plate exercises are low impact, which means they're easy on the joints but deceptively effective.

So are you ready to step up the plate? Try these simple stretches, back and lower body strengthening for accelerated muscle tone and calorie burn. Thank you PT Patrick and PT Charlotte for putting my recovery in the fast lane. :-D

TRX: Beat Gravity

I want to say thank you to my little sister, PAULA GOHING who really helped me a lot to make the "MG Perspire to Inspire" happen. You earned a Korean Buffet treat for this. ;-P

Finally, I've been wanting to start my #GohingToBeFit videos on my blog. It's a big relief knowing that I'm cleared from my Orthopedic doctor after months under therapy. Metafactor Wellness Center really helped me put my recovery in a fast lane. Thank you Meta Body for designing this workout!

So first thing first, what are TRX bands? These babies are developed by a former US Navy SEAL named Randy Hetrick. He and his fellow SEALS looked for ways on how to stay in peak physical condition with limited access to training implements and/or space for soldiers, athletes, trainers and clients-indooors and out. You can perform hundreds of functional strength and core conditioning exercises to built strength, balance, core stability and flexibility all with just a single portable training station.

For Today's Workout:

TRX
Body Weight Pull-ups
Mountain Climbers
Squats
(See video below)



Many people struggle with this simple but efficient exercise. While that might be true, it shouldn't put you off getting started. Some say body weight exercises are way better than exercises with weights because the movements are very natural and you're much less likely to injure yourself.

Get ready to hang and start building muscles today!
