Imagine shaking and shimmying your way to a fitter version of yourself in just 27 minutes. That’s the idea behind PLATEFIT – a high intensity workout that uses vibrating power plates to shimmy you to skinny. Or at least, more fit. I talked with the founder of PLATEFIT Rachael Blumberg about why she created this work out, and if working out on vibrating plates really works.
Rachael says vibration training is more than physical fitness and it’s backed by science. She tells me NASA uses this technology to train their astronauts. I’m in! Anything that’s good enough for the astronauts is good enough for me! I haven’t tried a class yet but it’s on my list as soon as I get a break. Here’s why Rachael says it works:
“We utilize the science of vibration to wake up your cells, increase circulation, drain & detoxify the lymphatic system, reduce inflammation, and accelerate recovery time. The body’s response to vibration increases serotonin & HGH and reduces cortisol— leaving you feeling high and living more vibrantly.”
She tells me she had a dream to start a business using vibration training and partnered with Cher to get started. Yes, THAT Cher! But soon after they started their business, Cher had to go to Vegas for her residency and Rachael navigated the growing popularity of PLATEFIT on her own. The business grew and grew through word of mouth and testimonials of people who had real results from this powerful 27 minute workout. Now she owns several PLATEFIT locations across SoCal and will be opening more next year.
She’s also a mom of 2 little ones and has a passion for fitness and following her dreams. You’ll love hearing her story in this episode and when you do, share your workout goals with me for the New Year! And you can visit platefit.co for more info on classes.
