Power-Plate is a brand of vibrating platform used as exercise equipment. It consists of a vibrating base, which may vibrate up and down approximately 1 to 2 mm (1/16") 20 to 50 times per second (measured in Hz). It is large enough to accommodate a person in deep squat. Traditional exercises such as squats and push-ups are done on the vibrating base. The motion makes the exercise positions harder to hold, because it involves loads several times the force of gravity (measured in g). People typically do a series of exercises for 30 seconds to one minute each on the machine, with rests of a similar duration. See Less
