Tone Up for Summer in Omaha, NE



With summer right around the corner, many people are searching for the right workout and diet to get them in summer shape in the shortest amount of time. After all, we all want to look our best in the sun right?

Below, I am going to show you some moves that can help tone up your body while using the Power Plate device. “Power Plate machines use the principle of accelerated training to stimulate the body's natural response to vibration. The vibrations transmit waves of energy throughout the body, activating muscle contractions between 25 and 50 times per second.”

Follow these simple ten moves to help get that body tone in no time:

1.Squat – Nothing compares to the basic squat. Plus, when incorporating the Power Plate, you are constantly contracting different muscles.
2.Push-Ups – Want more of a challenge? Place your feet on a Swiss Ball for more core work.
3.Static Squat Shoulder Presses – FYI, Static Squat is holding your squat position.
4.Static Squat Dumbbell Curls
5.Lunges – Alternate steps onto the Power Plate and incorporate a lunge.
6.Close Grip Push-Ups
7.Medicine Ball Oblique Twist – Perform while sitting on the Power Plate
8.Side Lunges – Place one foot on the Power Plate and perform the Lunge. Switch legs after time has finished.
9.Planks
10.Standing Calf Raises. Perform by holding onto the handles.

The Power Plate offers multiple settings such as vibrations and times. I suggest starting on a low vibration until you feel comfortable with the movements, same with the time.

Run through this sample workout as a circuit. Once ran through once, increase the vibration and time and go for a 2nd round. Perform 3 circuits, 3 times a week, and be on your way to a more tone body in no time.

Go get em!
