Q: What frequency range should I look for?

A 25 to 50 Hz frequency range offers the best versatility. Personal units often top out between 35 and 40 Hz, while commercial platforms maintain performance across the full range even at higher user weight.

Power Plate vibration trainers use tri planar acceleration to stimulate muscle activation, improve circulation, and enhance training efficiency. The lineup ranges from compact personal models to fully featured commercial platforms with adjustable frequency, longer session durations, and advanced consoles. Personal units like the Personal Vibration Trainer and My3 cover basic daily use, while mid tier models such as the My5 and My7 add wider frequency bands and more robust platforms. The commercial line including Pro5, Pro7, Pro5 AIRdaptive, and Pro6 delivers higher max user weight, multi level programming, AIRdaptive load adjustment, and optional proMOTION upper body cable resistance. This comparison breaks down specs such as frequency range, displacement, programs, accessories, power, and console features so you can pinpoint the best Power Plate for your training environment.
