Soloflex Whole Body Vibration

Date Published: 7/23/08

The Soloflex Whole Body Vibration (WBV) is actually an attachment for existing Soloflex gyms. It does come as a body platform for a separate product altogether, but it's really going to have more appeal to existing Soloflex users.

It's a unique upgrade for any gym. The WBV is like a little motor attached to the gym to make it vibrated during use. The body gains increased flexibility with the vibration, making it like an instant warm-up. The Journal of Sports Sciences reports that "Vibrating while exercising makes muscles grow faster and improves bone density."

Best of all, Soloflex has made it easy to use. There are no tools needed. Peel off paper to expose the adhesive side of the WBV and press down hard. It will stay in position for years to come.
