Great Machine!

Advantages: Quick Work-Out, Cheaper than Power Plates, Great Results
Disadvantages: Only tones your body, doesnt keep you fit.

...the next day! My legs were aching like i'd done a cross country run the previous day. Even though i was aching, i was extremly happy, knowing that this machine had its job. I now use this machine 3 times a week, varying my exercises. I feel much better for it, and noticed my body toning all over. The Machine The options on this machine are pretty basic, but then how much do you actually need to exercise? You have 6 buttons on the control panel. Two control the level of speed the plate vibrates, one starts the vibrating and one stops it. The other two are your timer and program functions. There 3 programs pre-installed into this model, which automatically set the speed and levels, there is also a manual option where by you can control the time and level when exercising. The time can be adjusted from 1-10 minutes. Theres not much you...

Review of Crazy Fit Vibration Massage Plate Exercise Machine

great machine it works!

Advantages: it does asa it says
Disadvantages: might make you feel dizzy

...i can say that this is a great machine it really works and gives you good results i wouldnt say the best but you can certainly tell after a period of time that your body has toned up, i havent got one of these myself but i would like to get one when i can afford it lets say. the vibration on this machine is not like a massage its more intense and when you stay on it for quite a while you will feel your muscles tightnen thats when you know its working. so i definatly gives this machine a thumbs up, i suggest you buy this machine if your too lazy or bored to go to the gym because you can do many exercises on this in the comfort of your own home. this is a great machine and would recommend this a good buy...

A Crazy Fit Review

Advantages: Really Good Machine all round
Disadvantages: None that i know of

...I think this machine is brilliant not only do i use it but my wife and teenage daughter do to. If anyone doesn't know exactly what it does i'll try and give you a normal explanation to you, the vibrations caused by the machine are sent to your muscles and your muscles try to balance the vibrations so they are working really hard trying to create the same amount of energy as the machine. (I hope that helped!) Even just standing on the Crazy Fit Massage Plate can tone your muscles. You can tone muscles, recieve massages and lose weight by using the machine its really easy! But one tip and this is important!! KEEP YOUR KNEES BENT SLIGHTLY WHEN USING THE MACHINE AS THE VIBRATIONS COULD GO TO YOUR BRAIN! so be careful guys and hope this review helped you....

Review of Crazy Fit Vibration Massage Plate Exercise Machine

To be used in private!

Advantages: Works your muscles harder whilst feeling quite relaxing and addictive.
Disadvantages: Your wobbly bits shake from head to toe and you sound like a robot!

...I have been using this machine for the past two weeks. I had previously used one at my local gym but the wait to get on the machine could be lengthy as it has proved so popular with people of all ages. The one I now have at home seems to be almost as powerful as the more expensive model in the gym and I can use it when I want. It has proved useful for getting more from exercises such as sit-ups and press-ups as the constant vibration really makes you use your core, concentrate on staying balanced and seemingly makes your muscles work harder. People I know who have used the machine for a few months believe their muscle tone to be improving! I have also found my recovery to be better after a long run if I use the machine whilst doing stretches. The reason I suggest using the machine in private is that many of the stretches...

Review of Crazy Fit Vibration Massage Plate Exercise Machine

Crazy fit is Crazy good!

Advantages: Dont break a sweat, can be used for all ages, quiet, lose inches!
Disadvantages: Cant drink a coffee while your on it!

...I live with my parents who have varying degrees of fitness and muscle tone. After visiting an old friend who suffers from severe problems with his circulation this machine is all my dad could talk about. His friend who is in his late 60?s was at the point of loosing his feet if he did not do something to improve his circulation. Being a very large man with not so good health anyway, normal exercise is not something he can comfortably do. Even a simple walk to the local shop is out of the question. So he used this machine and within a few weeks has improved his circulation so well that he is no longer at risk of losing his feet! He even lost weight too! My dad was very excited about this because he has a similar problem. Two years ago my father was very ill and as a result of this has lost part of one lung. His breathing is very...

Vibrate your Body into shape!!!!!!

Advantages: Great Hz range, well priced, sturdy, good size platform
Disadvantages: There are cheaper alternatives just as good

...Can you really vibrate you way to a fitter body. The answer to that question is yes (much to many of my female friends delight!). Sports and film stars alike are using this new technology to aid they?re training in the pursuit of increased physical performance or just looking good and the results seem to be extremely positive indeed. HOW DO THEY WORK? (apologies to those who read my review on a similar product, having worked in gym?s I have used and trained people using a number of different models). The idea for the machines were first developed by Russian scientists, who, during the cold war wanted to find a way that would keep there astronauts in shape while they were in space. The problem in space is you cannot train very easily because of the ?Zero gravity?. Now the idea was that by standing on the vibrating...

Review of Bodi-Tek Power Vibration Trainer

Certainly Vibrated My Wobbly Bits

Advantages: Has toned my bum and tum perfectly
Disadvantages: Nothing I love it.

...INTRODUCTION Last year me and my husband joined the gym as we have tried to become much fitter, due to a slight bit of weight gain around the middle regions. We would go six nights a week after work, and we certainly managed to reduce the excess weight but after being happy with my weight I was only having a thirty minute work out, for the sake of it but late last year the gym got refurbished and they introduced new machines. The best machine by far were these power vibration massagers, at first I thought they were very weird and stayed clear but after the gym instructor explained how they were used I was amazed and then spent every minute I could on it at the gym. My husband started lifting but he soon got into this as well, so for Christmas I treated him to his very own vibrating massager toning machine as they had at that point...

Vibrating Value

Advantages: vibration helps to settle baby
Disadvantages: no obvious on/off indicator

...Ok … well …. It is 4:30 in the morning and our 5 week old boy just wont settle. Walking around the room, singing, the dummy, feeding, all of them have been tried and failed … the only thing left to try is the tumble dryer …. Strange?!! I have no idea how we came across the fact that Reuben would settle pretty much straight away when he was in his chair in front of the tumble dryer, but I am sure glad we did!! He was very unsettled for the first month or so of his life because of an undiagnosed dairy intolerance that meant that his stomach was very uncomfortable, especially after feeding. Once the tumble technique (as it became known to us!!) was found it was used pretty often. Anyway … what does that little bit of information have to do with the Mothercare deluxe vibrating cradle? Well, we had...

Review of Mothercare Delux Vibrating Cradle

Mean machine 1 - Critics 0 (Mean Machine DVD)

Advantages: Entertaining from start to finish
Disadvantages: None for me

...~~~Mean Machine~~~ I originally first watched this around 2001 when it first came out but once again Ive been pondering over my pile of dvds and watching some of my favourites. You may have seen the original film with Burt Reynolds (namely The Longest Yard) or the more recent version with Adam Sandler (also named The Longest Yard). However the film I am reviewing is the 2001 version with Vinnie Jones. ~The cast: Vinnie Jones as Danny Meehan Vas Blackwood as Massive David Kelly as Doc Jason Statham as the Monk Danny Dyer as Billy the Limpet Jason Flemying as Bob Likely Jake Abraham as Bob Robbie Gee as Trojan Geoff Bell as Ratchet John Forgeman as Charlie Sykes David Hemmings as the Governor Ralph Brown as Burton Sally Phillips as Tracey ~The plot: Danny Meehan is a fallen former captain of England football team, tainted by booze...

Review of Mean Machine (DVD)

The God Machine

Advantages: Totally original, mind-blowing music
Disadvantages: Not much of a discography

...Two studio albums, a smattering of singles and several covers. That's all there is, pretty much, in the discography of one of the finest and most original rock bands of all time. As usual, no doubt everyone will simply be thinking "Who?" If you've been living under a rock through he 90s and 00s, and haven't heard of the other bands I've reviewed such as Soundgarden or Linkin park, then you almost certainly haven't heard of this lot. The God Machine were a three-piece from the USA who for various reasons ended up playing in this country supporting My Bloody Valentine (oh dear, I can hear that chorus of "Who?" again...) in their tour of 1991. They attracted the interest of a record label (Creation Records) and recorded their first album, "Scenes From the Second Storey" in 1992. WHAT KIND OF MUSIC IS IT? A sort of stripped...
