How Seniors And Those Who Have Difficulty Exercising Can Exercise Safely And Efficiently With The Noblerex K-1
The Noblerex K-1 vibration training machine is a relatively new tool being used in the fitness and physical therapy world today. It consists of a platform with a motor underneath, causing the platform to vibrate 7-28 times per second. While you are standing on it, this vibration is transferred to your muscles and creates a very time efficient, effective, and safe muscle toning workout. Most of these machines are safe and ideal for all ages and levels of fitness. What’s more, the vibrations not only help you get more toned and strong, they increase the production of Human Growth Hormone and serotonin, improve circulation in the skin and muscles, strengthen bone tissue, improve lymphatic drainage, burn calories, raise resting metabolism, and more.
The Noblerex K-1 has become a blessing to thousands of people who suffer from conditions such as osteoporosis, neuropathy, rheumatism, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, spinal cord injuries, or muscle atrophy. These people typically can’t perform the same kind of exercises other people can, yet they still need regular exercise to stay fit and healthy. Thanks to these vibration machines, they are able to reap the aforementioned benefits of regular exercise and vibration exercise without damage, pain or fatigue from jarring or exhausting movement.
When talking about vibration training machines, you may or may not have come across the word “load” before. The load means the gravitational pressure placed on your body while on the machine or doing any sort of activity for that matter – walking, jumping, running, etc. Depending on the vibration machine type, the load your body experiences can be very little to quite substantial. This of course makes a significant difference in your experience. The joints, ligaments, organs, even the head, will experience more pressure the more fragile or larger the body is.
So how can we make sure this type of exercise is as comfortable and safe for you as possible?
With vertical, also known as linear, vibration machines, the load on the joints, tendons and ligaments, can be very high – up to 600% (or six times) your body weight, depending on the machine and your positioning. Those with joint or back issues will usually find this up and down movement pattern uncomfortable and even painful, as may others without these issues.
On the other hand, vibration machines such as the Noblerex K-1, use a vibration system known as oscillating, or pivotal, vibration. Here, the muscles on each side of the body are contracted alternatively; this is similar to muscle contraction when you walk. The load with these types of machines is about 1.3 times your body weight. This is far less load than walking places on your body! This is why whole body vibration using oscillating machines has become a secret weapon for those who need to be sensitive to the amount of load placed on their body.
Oscillating vibration machines are especially friendly to the elderly and people with disabilities. These machines create a gentle to intense – depending on the level – rocking movement rather than a jarring up and down movement. This reduces the impact the vibration exercise has on your entire body, making it much safer and more comfortable than linear vibration machines.
If you’re still unsure what type of vibration machine would be best for you, we would encourage you to try out a linear, or vertical, whole body vibration machine at your local gym or home exercise equipment outlet. Then try a pivotal or oscillating vibration machine and notice the difference. You’ll see what feels best for your body, not only while you’re on the machine, but the day after too!
The Noblerex K-1 oscillating vibration machine is perfect for people of all ages and fitness levels and especially for those who don’t have time to exercise or have a disability. To learn more, please visit our Noblerex K-1 site or call for a free consultation at (800) 518-4272.
