Transformative effect at Edinburgh fitness facility

The Integrated Fitness concept combines Power Plate with other training modalities

Power Plate Integrated Fitness can transform functional training zones and help people view vibration training in a new way, according to Michael Mclaughlin, gym supervisor at Edinburgh Leisure’s Craiglockhart Leisure and Tennis Centre, which installed the programme in 2014.

The Integrated Fitness concept combines Power Plate with other training modalities such as ViPR, kettlebells and suspension training to create a new programming solution.

The centre has seen a notable increase in people using Power Plate since setting up the integrated fitness zone in the gym, which features a compass mat and a freestanding exercise banner to show members what to do on the equipment.

“Power Plate is a great piece of equipment, but members can settle into doing the same exercise routines,” says Mclaughlin. “The Power Plate Integrated Fitness concept provides the tools to show people the versatility of the vibration training and encourages them to try it.”
