Soloflex WBV

The new WBV platform is ideal to enhance Pilates, Tai Chi, Yoga and all types of stretching, freebody exercises and weight training. The gentle vibrations help increase circulation to provide fast warm-ups and improved flexibility.

Soloflex is pleased to manufacture the first affordable WBV Platform for home use. At only $495 (institutional WBV platforms cost $3,500 to $13,000) our platform makes daily use convenient.  NOW ON SALE $395! SAVE $100!

 Vibration + weight training = faster gains

The new SOLOFLEX Whole Body Vibration Platform is the perfect size, shape and height to perform most barbell and dumbbell exercises; it’s high enough off the floor to allow a full range of motion on bench-presses, yet low enough to step off safely if balance is lost during standing exercises. Exercising a few minutes a day does help build muscle. Adding WBV to your routine is a fun new way to increase the benefits of your exercise program.

Weight-bearing exercise for Everyone.

Lots of things can make exercising difficult but without the addition of weight-bearing exercise no fitness program is complete. Simple stretching and loading of muscles while vibrating has much the same effect as a moderate weightlifting workout.

Simple and Effective

Who would have thought something so simple could have such profound conditioning effects? Our new WBV attachment is worth the money just for the increased flexibility and fast warm-ups it gives you. Add the improved muscle gains it delivers and it really makes sense. And it’s so inexpensive. You really should try out this new attachment. Of course it comes with a full money back guarantee. We bet you keep it. This is a remarkable technology. Who is employing this exercise technology today?New York Giants, New York Mets, Kansas City Chiefs, San Diego Chargers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Denver Nuggets, Miami Dolphins, San Diego Padres, Pittsburgh Pirates, St. Louis Cardinals, Tennessee Titans, Sacramento Kings, San Antonio Spurs, Philadelphia Flyers, Toronto Blue Jays, Atlanta Braves and the Oakland A’s.

 Impact Strengthens

It's like the old saying: the blow that doesn't break your back makes it stronger. For example, only a conditioned Karate expert can chop through boards and cinder blocks without injury. How is a hand strengthened to withstand such blows? By repeatedly pounding it, increasing the force over time as the hand adapts to the ever increasing impacts. Our impact board uses the same principle to strengthen, only with less impact but significantly more frequency. Up to 60 whacks a second, 36,000 in a ten minute session. The impact adds up.

Shaking Things Up

The Journal of Sports Sciences reports that inducing a low frequency vibration to weightlifting exercises increases their effectiveness. Vibration was superimposed to weightlifting exercises for the study. After a three week period the vibration group tested a 50% increase in strength while the group doing identical exercises without vibration increased only 16% (a typical gain). You may have heard about or even used one of the new WBV machines. NFL, NBA and professional baseball teams swear by them. So do Olympic trainers. It's just a floor platform that vibrates, and costs $10,000. You should check them out ~ but before you buy one consider this ~ we can induce the proper low frequency vibration to your Soloflex, Rockit, or Freeweight Bench for $200. Or, if you prefer, provide the vibration on a floor platform.

 FAQs

Q: Is it safe?
The ANSI (American National Standards Institute) has established time limits for allowable worksplace exposure to whole body vibration (WBV). The Soloflex WBV Platform safe exposure time limit is approximately 30 minutes a day at all acceleration levels (.3g's to 1.1g's).

Q: So what happens if I vibrate for 31 minutes a day?
Overdosing on WBV at these acceleration levels will make you over-tired and inattentive, just like too much exercise. We recommend ten minutes a day.

Q: What vibration frequency should I use?
The Soloflex frequency/amplitude (g-load) controller is adjustable between .3g’s and 1.1g’s (28Hz-60Hz). All settings in this range have produced similar results in controlled studies.

Q: What are the specs?
The Soloflex WBV Platform is 10" X 40." It weighs 31 pounds. The platform is a standard Soloflex weightlifting bench (15-ply wood laminate molded with urethane foam). There is no weight restriction for users. The vibration motor draws about .5 amps, the same as a 60 watt light bulb. Everything is American made except the frequency controller (Hong Kong).
