Use Of The Power Plate
®
Machine
1.0 General health warnings for use
Always follow the directions on the
machine’s console for proper operation.
Close supervision is required when the
machine is used by, or near, children or
disabled persons.
Always use care when getting on and
off the machine. Use the handles on the
machine, as needed, to maintain stability
when getting on and off the machine.
Never reach into or under the machine,
or tip the machine on its side, while it is in
operation.
Use the machine only for the purposes
described in this user manual and only
with attachments or accessories that
come with the machine or which Power
Plate has specifically approved for use
with the machine, or personal injury
could result.
2. Specific health warnings for use
2.1 Proper clothing and padding
During exercises in which the user stands
on the vibration platform, the user should
wear rubber-soled shoes or, if the user
chooses to exercise in socks or bare
feet, the user should use one of the three
contoured mats that are provided with
the machine.
During exercises in which any part of the
user’s body is in contact with the vibration
platform, Power Plate recommends the
use of at least one contoured mat.
2.2 Proper position and balance
In order to avoid possible injury from
the machine’s vibrations, Power Plate
recommends that the user not lean back
on his/her heels or “lock” his/her joints
or straighten his/her legs when standing
upright on the machine.
It is important at all times to maintain
balance while on the machine. The
user, however, should not “hang” on the
machine’s handles in order to maintain
balance but should (unless the directions
for a particular exercise state otherwise)
keep his/her knees directly above the toes.
Proper position and balance are
especially important if the user
employs weights during any exercise
on the machine. Power Plate strongly
recommends that users not employ
weights while using the machine, unless
they are being coached by an exercise
professional or unless the user has
extensive experience with weight
training or with the Power Plate
®
machine.
The three illustrations on the left
demonstrate improper ways to stand
on the machine.
You always need to be balanced when
standing on the Power Plate
®
machine.
Never hang on to the handles, use them
only to maintain balance.
Don’t lean on your heels too much.
Balance your weight predominantly on
the front of your feet.
When training with the Power Plate
®
machine, do not “lock” any joints, such as
your knees and elbows, but keep them
slightly bent.
2.3 Proper hydration
Power Plate recommends that the user
stay well-hydrated by drinking at least
300 ml (16 ounces) of water before,
during, and after each exercise session.
2.4 Proper limitations on exercise
Warning: it is imperative that the user
pay careful attention to his/her body’s
reaction to exercise on the machine and
that the user not over-exert himself/herself
or work to exhaustion, or personal injury
could result.
If, at any time, the user experiences
dizziness, faintness, shortness of breath,
or any pain, the user should immediately
stop exercising and consult a physician
before continuing with an exercise
program, or personal injury could result.
