Buying a Refrigerator (Or a Vibration Machine)

I needed a new Refrigerator. I spent hours reading advertisements in newspapers and magazines. I visited at least six stores looking at fridge types and asking lots of questions. I even remembered to measure the space the new fridge had to fit into. Once I’d decided on two or three possible fridges to buy I asked more questions specific to the fridge and the freezer sections as I’d decided a dual Fridge/Freezer suited my needs best. Now, one year later, I am very happy with my new fridge and it does all I needed it to do.

Why do people buy Vibration Machines without the same amount of care ??? I keep hearing, “I bought a XYZ brand Vibration Machine and now I’m not sure how to use it”; “Is CrazyXYZ a good machine?”; “Why does my ABCFitZ machine move on the floor when it’s turned on?”; “I’m using my XFitXYZ machine every day. Why do I feel so ill?”  and similar questions.

The answer to all of these is: Do your homework before you buy! If you plan to use a Studio don’t buy a one month plan on your first visit. Trial the Studio and ask questions!

Choosing a Vibration Training Studio isn’t as easy as just turning up at your closest provider. It’s important to visit all the studios you can and to ask questions about the machines and the program used.  Most providers offer the first session free so you can assess it.  You will be asked to fill in a questionnaire asking your reasons and goals for Vibration Training and you need to clearly state any injuries (present or past) and medical problems you have.  From this information a proficient Instructor will tell you if you can proceed or if you need to get medical clearance first.  Also they can advise alternative positions you will use on the machines if a regular position is contraindicated.  Some people start with a Therapy program to target injured or weak areas of the body and then move onto a Training (fitness/strength) program. » Read more: Choosing a Vibration Studio isn’t as easy
