Advanced Vibration Exercise

WAVE (Whole-Body Advanced Vibration Exercise) technology from WAVE Manufacturing Inc, Windsor, Ontario, provides strength gains in 15 minutes a day/three times a week, helping to boost circulation and flexibility and benefit bone density, with minimal stress on the joints. It pushes the user's body upward 2 to 4 millimeters against gravity, yielding involuntary muscle contractions that can be repeated at a rapid rate, and recruiting nearly 100% of muscle fiber. At a safe frequency of 20 to 50 muscle contractions a second, the machine can produce up to 3,000 contractions a minute—the equivalent of 3,000 knee bends.
