Power Plate: A Golfer’s Secret Weapon

by AAGD Staff

To play your best golf, Power Plate offers a unique solution for golfers of any age or ability, to quickly improve their flexibility, range of motion, stability and balance.

PowerPlate_300x200Power Plate, the gold standard in whole body vibration technology, is used by some of the best athletes in the world, including many professional golfers. The secret is Power Plate’s vibrating surface which triggers immediate contractions of your stabilizing muscles 25 to 50 times every second. These reflexive muscle contractions result in positive improvements in balance, flexibility, coordination and strength to quickly ready golfers to play their best. If you choose a more aggressive setting, massaging on Power Plate brings valuable healing and pain relief to tired, sore muscles to get you back on the course faster. Using this patented technology for as little as five minutes before your tee time helps prepare the body for its best swings possible.

Do you dread those first few swings on the range where your body feels stiff and your swing feels restricted? Just 5 minutes on Power Plate before you play, and your body will respond like it does in the middle of the round. The rapid contractions quickly increase circulation, warming your muscles to improve flexibility and increase range of motion.

As the Power Plate surface shifts below you, your core is constantly challenged, increasing muscle activity and strength. Increasing your strength and fitness decreases your risk of injury.

All Power Plate 7-series models include a touch-activated video screen, which guides users through a variety of exercise routines, including many designed specifically for golfers. The Power Plate Golf Videos offer a summary of each routine and explains its benefits, including: increased range of motion, mobility, enhanced stability, balance, improved strength and power.

Craig Barlow, PGA Tour Professional, has said: “I started using the Power Plate to improve my flexibility, increase my strength and rehab a wrist injury. After six weeks, my flexibility has improved dramatically, my strength is through the roof – I have gained a full club in distance and my wrist is ready for a return to the PGA Tour.”

Using whole body vibration exercises in a golfer’s workout routine just got easier with the introduction of the Personal Power Plate – a new, compact and portable model that harnesses the same benefits of the full-sized versions with added convenience. Regardless of space constraints, the Personal Power Plate makes it easy to integrate vibration training into any workout and prepare for a better golf game.

Many golf courses/country clubs, PGA Tour strength coaches and even PGA Tour professionals advocate the use of Power Plate training before hitting the green, including Rocco Mediate, six-time PGA Tour Winner, who said: “All it takes is a quick 90-seconds or so on the Power Plate prior to beginning a round of hitting the range and my body is completely warmed up and ready to go.”
