Spoilt for choice With smart applications and an upper body training device, the VibroGym Evolution (VG Evo) platform has just launched in the UK.
Training software is embedded in the machine’s touchscreen display, providing hundreds of videos and exercise choices for every fitness level.
Newly developed VG Vibrating Handgrips offer an upper body workout; these can also be detached and used independently as vibrating dumbbells, on or off the machine. Integrated Cardio Colour Control software accurately monitors training intensity, and the information can be displayed in colour on-screen when using a Bluetooth heart rate belt.
VG Evo is built entirely from precision cast aluminium and is distributed in the UK by React Fitness. The machine can be viewed and tested at FIBO 2015, taking place in April in Cologne, Germany.

Transformative effect 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.”
