03 Feb 3G Cardio 3.0 inexpensive way to perform vibration training
Accelerated Vibration Training (AVT) is the fastest growing area of the specialty fitness market since elliptical machines came along.
When the world watches the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl 50 on Feb. 7, they’ll see a team that’s conditioned themselves on vibration machines.
These machines are also popular with celebrities, the average couple next door and even senior citizens and people battling chronic diseases.
There’s a simple reason more and more people are turning to vibration training: it works.
Vibration machines create instability, which the body senses and reflexively contracts muscle tissue involuntarily to stabilize and react to the stimuli.
As a result, all three types of skeletal muscles are instantaneously called into service because of the near-immediate level of fatigue. No longer is there a “progression of muscle fatigue” as in traditional strength training.
AVT can work up to 95 percent of the muscle fibers, compared to as little as 20 percent with traditional strength training. In significantly less time than using traditional exercise methods, people can get a much better workout.
Many experts state that people can get great benefits from performing AVT training just 30 minutes three times a week.
Vibration trainers can cost a lot of money, though, spanning between $5,000-$10,000 on average for a good machine.
If you want to experience the benefits of vibration training without breaking your bank, the award-winning 3G Cardio AVT 3.0 Vibration Machine is a great entry level machine. It sells for an MSRP of $2,499, but is available on sale through At Home Fitness at $1,999.
The 3G Cardio AVT 3.0 Vibration Machine trainer packs a 50 Hertz vibration capability into a smaller frame and lower price point than the well-known 3G Cardio AVT 5.0 Vibration Machine (MSRP $3,999, AHF $3,599) and AVT 6.0 Vibration Machine (MSRP $4,999, AHF $4,499).
The 3G Cardio AVT 3.0 Vibration Machine has four built-in exercise programs and a powerful motor that allows users to get a complete body workout.
The 50 Hertz motor allows users to train with the strongest vibrations on the market in this price point. The 3G 3.0 machine’s vibration platform size of just 24 inches (width) x 24 (depth) takes up less room than bigger machines on the market to help fit in smaller workout rooms, but still delivers powerful vibrations with which to train..
The 3G Cardio design team stated, “This AVT 3.0 Vibration Machine has been years in the making and development. We wanted to bring a smaller vibration machine to the market that offered the same quality and value of our larger models.
“We’re extremely pleased to say that we’ve been able to do that with the AVT 3.0 Vibration Machine. Normally, people won‘t find a 50 hertz capability in a vibration machine that sells for under $5,000, but we‘ve been able to do that with this model. The specs are fantastic. It has the same quality as our 5.0 and 6.0 models at a smaller size and lower price.”
Quick-touch settings allow users to easily change the time increments to 30, 90 or 180 seconds, and also easily adjust the Hertz settings (how fast the vibration platform moves).
There’s also a two years parts, one-year labor warranty. A maximum user capacity of 350 pounds shows how well its built.
The 3G Cardio 3.0 Vibration Machine is a small vibration trainer that produces big-time results.
