Denition: Fall prevention is dened as a variety of actions to help reduce the number of accidental falls suffered by older people. Muscular Strength and Power Claim: Power Plate training can be a benecial tool/intervention to help increase strength and power to improve daily life performance, both acute and structural. Denition: Physical strength is the ability of a person or animal to exert force on physical objects using muscles. Increasing physical strength is the goal of strength training. Power is the amount of work done or energy transferred per unit of time. Pain Claim: Power Plate training can be a benecial tool/intervention to reduce and/or alleviate (chronic) pain. Denition: Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage. Cellulite Claim: Power Plate training can be a benecial tool/intervention to diminish the appearance of cellulite. Denition: Cellulite describes a condition that occurs in men and women (although much more common in women) where the skin of the lower limbs, abdomen and pelvic region becomes dimpled after puberty.Weight Loss Claim: Power Plate training can be a benecial tool/intervention to lose weight and specically lose body fat. Denition: Weight loss, in the context of medicine, health or physical tness, is a reduction of the total body weight, due to a mean loss of uid, body fat or adipose tissue and/or lean mass, namely bone mineral deposits, muscle, tendon and other connective tissue. Bone Density/Bone Mineral Density Claim: Power Plate training can be a benecial tool/intervention to increase bone density and prevent bone mineral density loss related to aging. Denition: Bone density (or bone mineral density) is a medical term referring to the amount of matter per cubic centimeter of bones. Circulation and Cardiovascular Claim: Power Plate training can be a benecial tool/intervention to improve and increase circulation and improve the function of the cardiovascular system. Denition: The circulatory system is an organ system that moves nutrients, gases and wastes to and from cells, helps ght diseases and helps stabilize body temperature and pH to maintain homeostasis. Two types of uids move through the circulatory system: blood and lymph. The blood, heart and blood vessels form the cardiovascular system. The lymph, lymph nodes and lymph vessels form the lymphatic system. The cardiovascular system and the lymphatic system collectively make up the circulatory system. Pulmonary circulation is the portion of the cardiovascular system which transports oxygen-depleted blood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated blood back to the heart. Flexibility/Range of Motion Claim: Power Plate® training can be a benecial tool/intervention to improve exibility and range of motion. Denition: Flexibility is the absolute range of movement in a joint or series of joints and muscles that is attainable in a momentary effort involving a partner or a piece of equipment. The exibility of a joint depends on many factors, particularly the length and looseness of the muscles and ligaments due to normal human variation, and the shape of the bones and cartilage that make up the joint. Pathology Studies Claim: Power Plate training can be a benecial tool/intervention to improve general well being, tness and daily life functioning in patient populations. Power Plate might have a positive impact on general tness, muscle strength, daily life performance and well being but does not have a direct impact on the state of the disease or injury. It will improve patient’s life quality. Denition: No denition possible for this very diverse group. Examples of patients: Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, Fibromyalgia, Cerebral Palsy, Spinal Cord Injury, Diabetes, Cardiac Rehabilitation.Claimed medical indications include use in relation to the prevention, treatment and/or alleviationof disease.2of 22 3of 22

G-factor™ The my7 model offers a new way of setting the machine, called the G-Factor™, which simplies how one sets the machine to operate at various levels of intensity. The G-Factor combines the frequencies and amplitudes, as shown in the table below. The term G-factor™ is based on g-forces as described in paragraph 1.2 Intensity Level, a combination of frequency and amplitude. Intensity level The intensity at which the machine operates can be determined by multiplying frequency and amplitude, which shows how fast and how far the platform is accelerating. Acceleration is expressed in meters per second squared (m/s2) and can be converted to g-forces. An acceleration of 9.81 m/s2 is equal to a g-force of 1g. Stretch – Readies your muscles and connecting tissues. An excellent prep for any workout. Balance – Activates your mind/body connection and increases your stabilizing muscle strength. Core – Engages and strengthens your central pillar including abs, obliques and spinal erectors. Strength – Builds lean muscle, tones and burns fat with both dynamic and static style exercises.

proMOTION™ Dynamic Vibration TechnologyHow Does it Work?proMOTION™ Dynamic Vibration Technology uses high strength Vectran® cables, which have been specically chosen for their unique ability to optimize the transfer of vibrations generated by the platform directly to the targeted muscle. Specically upper body muscles. The Vectran cables, which pound-by-pound are ve times stronger than steel, transfer vibration to the upper body at high-speed frequency rates between 30 and 40 times per second. Vectran® is a registered trademark of Hoechst Celanese CorpEach cable extends to more than two meters, allowing for movement in all planes and directions, so you can enjoy full range of movement and innite dynamic exercise options.Not only does the proMOTION optimize the transmission of vibrations to the targeted muscle but it also offers variable resistance. Changing the resistance puts more load on the muscles during the most intense part of the movement, Shift lever towards you to increase; shift away from you to decreaseoffering another way to progress your workouts by increasing the intensity of your training. The unique gel dampening system also increases the resistance as you work harder.Usage and GuidelinesAs with any form of exercise, cease your session immediately if you feel faint, dizzy or ill while working out on the Power Plate® machine. Always consult a doctor or specialist before restarting your training.As with any training routine, it is important to start using the proMOTION on the lowest level of resistance and with the Power Plate machine on a low setting. Establish a good technique before increasing the setting on the proMOTION from low to high.Always pay special attention to your posture, especially the position of your wrists and back, and how close you are to the Power Plate machine. Dynamic exercises should be performed mainly in vertical movements.10 of 22 11 of 22

have to nd what works best for you. If you feel the schedules are too easy or too intense once you have become accustomed to this training method, you can adjust them to your comfort level.G-FactorExercise which is selected manually has its own preset setting and G-factor range. For each type of exercise, we recommend the following g-factor settings: Stretch settings should be performed on g-factor level 1. Balance settings should be performed between g-factor level 1 and 2. Core, Strength and Massage exercises should be performed between g-factor level 1 and 6.When the G-factor level is increased, the volume of exercises should be decreased (duration, number of sets) and the rest period should be increased proportionally. MatThe mat dampens the vibrations. Always use the mat when you have a body part in contact with the plate surface, or if you are exercising in socks or bare feet.Sessions per WeekIn general, we recommend performing two to three sessions per week. Stretches, massages, relaxation and preparation programs can be performed more often. Extra LoadWe recommend only adding external load, such as using weights, if you are an experienced Power Plate user, or if your professional coach or trainer is supervising your training. All of the above parameters can be varied with the extra load. When external load is added to your exercises on the Power Plate® machine, amplitude and volume of the exercises should be decreased and the rest period should be increased proportionally as though starting the entire exercise progression again. Specialized programs and additional progression steps for individual users should be drawn up by educated and certied Power Plate® trainers. Power Plate offers a variety of educational and training materials, including DVDs, online learning and in some countries, specialized academies. For more information please visit our website, www.powerplate.com.Training on the Power Plate machine is like any other type of training: start with light and short training sessions, and once accustomed to the vibrations, one can begin to gradually intensify the program. We strongly recommend that you always listen to what your own body is telling you.The step-by-step build up of intensity is extremely important for your training so that it is both efciently and responsibly.The exercise intensity can be varied simply by using the following variables: Length of time for each exercise Rest time between exercises Number of exercises G-Factor Sessions per week (between 2 and 3 is optimal) Muscle tension (how tightly contracted the muscle is) by changing the angle of the joint or, for example, performing the exercise on one leg only Complexity of movement or additional movement (i.e., active or dynamic movement versus only holding an exercise position) Additional weight or extra load, i.e., using a weight vest or dumbbellsHow these variables are applied depends on the individual and training goals of the person involved. Other factors that should be taken into account are injuries, limitations, specic demands and/or any other circumstances inuencing the training regimen.In general the following progression steps can be taken: Exercise Time, Number of Exercises and Rest TimeThese settings depend on your training goals. If you are new to Acceleration Training™ sessions, we recommend performing only a few exercises and resting for the same amount of time as is spent actively using the Power Plate machine. After a while, more exercises can be added. When trying to accomplish weight loss, cardiovascular or endurance improvements, rest time can be reduced, exercise time can be extended and the number of exercises can be increased to add to the total volume of training.For recovery, exibility and preparation, it is better to perform specic exercises and keep the total volume low, with enough rest between exercises.For strength, power and speed, the intensity (i.e., Hertz settings) per exercise can be increased, but the total volume should be kept low.Example: If you are training for endurance or weight loss goals, you should progressively extend the duration of training to multiple sets of 60 seconds each and cut the rest period to 30 seconds or less between subsequent sets. If your goal is to achieve maximum strength or power, you should do multiple sets of short duration on high amplitude, and take long rest periods, from 1 to 4 minutes. Another important aspect is ensuring that between training sessions, you rest long enough to fully recover. We normally recommend two days of rest after each training session. It is our experience that one day’s rest after training with Power Plate equipment is often enough, but every body is different and you will Varying the Intensity12 of 22 13 of 22
