Shame on you for the lack of information about how your product works, and for the simple fact that you choose to join the masses  who prey on people trying to lose weight and looking for the next great weight loss thing.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cheryl Starnes]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 1st 2007 8:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</guid><description><![CDATA[We have used vibration to "bias" muscle spindles for many years to facilitate tone of very weak or flaccid muscles. We have also seen the deleterious effects on the body of long term vibration (truck drivers before air ride seats). Like most things, anything powerful enough to do good is also powerful enough to do bad. Good refereed information would be welcomed before applying this to my patients, complete with the parameters of how much is good and at what point does it become bad for different classes of patient (osteoporosis patients, athletes etc.) if infact there are positives.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Don J.

I believe they help with balance and muscular strength as well as lymphatic drainage which is important in disease prevention.  Rebounding(mini-trampoline) is great for these things too. And it doesn't take agressive movement/bouncing. I think these machines would be great for rehabilitation of the injured and elderly and for anyone who wants to keep the fluids moving in their bodies and as an adjunct to good diet and regular exercise.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michele K]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 1st 2007 8:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</guid><description><![CDATA[THIS REMINDS ME OF THE OLD MACHINE WITH THE BELT THAT GOES AROUND YOUR REAR.THEY WOULD ALWAYS SHOW A BIG FAT WOMAN ALMOST SHAKING HERSELF TO DEATH.

And I agree-there is false advertising behind many products in order to promote them.  Advertising is the promise in a bottle. There is some solid science behind these vibration devices as well as some warnings.  Do the research...read labels...ask educated questions and make educated statements.   Most of all be well in the New Year;-)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michele K]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 1st 2007 9:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</guid><description><![CDATA[if you want to vibrate, just make love, you burn alot of calories doing that too. :o)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[leslie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 1st 2007 9:26AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</guid><description><![CDATA[not a hoax. the muscles work by trying to keep the body steady. have seen this in action but with a larger platform. folks do minor excersizes with this. great for the elderly as well. it improves their stability.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 1st 2007 9:34AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/12/26/my5-power-plate-another-way-to-vibrate-yourself-skinny/</guid><description><![CDATA[I try to keep an open mind.
