WHOLE BODY VIBRATION…
EXERCISE MADE EASY!
DROP THE KILOS… STAY STRONG…
KEEP ACTIVE.
Build a stronger, lighter you,
safely and faster than
traditional exercise.
The result… you keep weight off!1
My results exceeded expectations, not just in body shape, but injury repair. At 53, I am in better shape than I was at 35.
Vibration has truly been
life-changing for me.

When you stand on the CV12’s vibrating platform this clever, full body vibration machine will force your muscles to contract and relax.
The full body effects of vibration exercise are similar to strength training, but can be achieved in a fraction of the time. You just hold the pose while the involuntary contractions do the work… helping you burn fat and reap the health benefits.
It’s important to note that not all vibrating plates will give weight loss results. Even though some are promoted as a Whole Body Vibration machine, this doesn’t make them an exercise machine.
Similarly, if you aren’t following a results-based full body workout program, you’re only likely to be getting therapy results. Check out Vibration’s Training Myths below to Top Training Tips below.
When you sit on the CV12…
Your core muscles engage automatically – so you can improve your pelvic floor. Research has also shown it may even help with incontinence and constipation.
Your circulation and synovial fluids move faster through the body to relax the spine and relieve tension.
And that same circulation boost is pushing blood into injured cells to potentially heal and relieve pain, as well as improve your skin, hair and nails.
The CV12’s platform height is almost double virtually all competitors. No more struggling to get up and down from the floor, with a raised seat it’s never been easier to sit on your exercise machine and get the core and upper body health benefits.
The Magic Mat is a supportive, comfort-designed platform. It’s so much nicer than the hard, rigid, bone-bruising vibrating plates our competitors offer. What would you prefer to sit or stand on?
The Magic Mat uses special polymers… yes, think luxury cushioning. Feel the ‘push back’ effect just from standing. It’s soft on joints for an even gentler ‘therapy session’ or is perfect for that strength training workout with spring-back support.
Whole Body Vibration (WBV) exercise can have significant positive effects2 on the leg strength among untrained people and elderly women.
For elite and amateur athletes, the same applies, with explosive strength increasing by over 10%3.
WBV at frequencies below 20 Hz has been shown to activate those ‘key’ stabilising muscles at your body’s core to reduce that relentless tiring ‘lower’ back pain so many of us suffer with.10.
Some incredible research is also showing excellent outcomes to help reduce and prevent the effects of fibromyalgia8, osteoarthritis9, diabetes type 211, cerebral palsy12 and rheumatoid arthritis.
According to a 2019 study14, WBV can significantly improve a person’s positivity after training 3 times a week over just 12 weeks. Plus, getting in and out of a seated position couldn’t be easier with our raised platform and unique curved rail design, supporting you every step of the way.
WBV generates muscle contractions. Even at a light intensity the Vibration has a pumping effect on the blood and lymphatic flow. These waves of movement through the soft tissues may increase peripheral circulation by double just by standing on the moving plate and increase lymphatic drainage by 40%.15
The World Health Organisation16 collaborated on a study reporting that after just 6 weeks of WBV, 3 times a week, the quality of life, and the walk, balance and motor capacity of elderly people aged between 79 to 84 improved17. Results showed an increase of 143% in physical function and a 77% improvement in balance.
According to three-time New York Times bestselling science author, Dave Asprey20…
“Studies show that Vibration Training improves strength more efficiently in the elderly. Since the elderly have trouble using conventional workout machines, Whole Body Vibration was used to improve balance and muscle tone. Whole Body Vibration also improves quality of life, ability to walk and balance, and motor capacity in the elderly.
We include 4 programs from two international experts to help achieve your weight loss, mobility and health goals.
Lloyd has tested and tweaked this magic formula across his chain of Vibration studios to provide CV12 users with the optimum ten full-body workout poses and speed instructions to achieve the best body re-composition results in the shortest amount of time. Lloyd is renowned as the world’s leading authority on Vibration training.
This exclusive program is one of the first Vibration weight loss programs in the world. Spread out over 6 modules, the program combines Vibration exercise with research-backed weight loss principles.
For bone health or low back pain, our doctor-developed programs will ensure you use Vibration safely and effectively.
New to Vibration, and not sure how to start? Our sessions provide a safe, step-by-step guide to Vibration Training through videos and printable modules.
We have over 300 exercise positions, and counting! The exercises are broken down into body parts so you can easily access our exercise database to make up your own programs if you choose. Just follow the videos …it’s that easy.
Lloyd has been involved in the industry since 2001, launching the world’s first Vibration training studio in 2003 and now has the biggest chain worldwide.
He also designs and builds the largest and only machines for helping the morbidly obese and those suffering disabilities / mobility issues, which he trains for free.
He is the leading authority on Whole Body Vibration and advises both the health and fitness industries internationally.
There are websites you’ll find making claims, suggesting they are “backed by research”, insisting high GForce is essential to achieve results. Like all research studies, if the results are self-serving then you should be wary of the claims. I can tell you with 20+ years experience, high GForce is absolutely NOT NECESSARY to achieve the best results.
I work with frail, disabled, elite athletes, as well as mums and dads looking to get their health back on track. They have all had great results on low frequency. Just like every other training method in the world… if you can’t do it slow, you SHOULD NEVER do it fast!
Not everything that vibrates is vibration training. Smaller and slower machines or lighter platforms, often provide only therapy results (i.e. circulation, massage etc). To change your body composition, you need a machine designed for this that also comes with sturdy side rails to hold the #1 pose for weight loss – the deep squat.
To lose weight you need to increase your metabolism. To achieve this your muscles must be under enough tension to grow stronger. Just standing can’t do that. But, when you go from standing into a squat you’ve switched the muscle activation from a gentle pump to full muscle contraction.
That’s where the magic begins.
Studies conducted on nursing home residents have shown excellent results for improved mobility. In my studios we work with deconditioned people every day – they all start with poor strength and no fitness. When committed to a proven program, everyone sees great progression.
Maintain the precise position recommended to achieve your goal. (e.g. explosive strength, balance, upper body strength… they all need a different approach!)
You need to do enough time in that pose to get the most out of it and that gets back to following a proven program.
The intensity of a pose has everything to do with your position on the tilting plate and the angle of your joints and will register in your body differently to what each machine’s specifications show are possible. A proven program is key.
Side rails are critical to keep you in the pose and lift you out as your legs fatigue. To improve balance, side rails also make standing poses safe. Add in the high platform, getting in and out of the seated position is now easy, so everyone can enjoy massage and get benefit from abdominal poses.
Most training programs provided by retailers are cloned off the internet and originate from importers that are not invested in results. They do very little towards achieving weight loss and toning, or improving health. Proven results from a trustworthy instructor with credentials, is EVERYTHING!!!
If we don’t have the answers, we’ll put you in touch with Lloyd Shaw who most certainly will!!!
