I’ve had this a month now. I’ve used it daily and used two of the three possible movement directions. I have not yet tried the programs. I’m 75, overweight, and not flexible. All the issues seniors face with stiffness and aches and whatnot, I’ve got. This review is for all y'all that are, too. What I’ve found is that it has helped my balance (I’m moving more easily over the yard to get to the car and whatnot), my strength is improving (I’ve carried the large cat-food bags in where previously I had difficulty lifting them), my flexibility increased (I’m easily bending down to pick things up, etc), aches in body and joints (just general aches go away and stay away for quite a while, to my surprise), and my energy has gone up (previously I was too tired to walk to the next room until I absolutely had to). In a month! (I need an extra ! on that). To accomplish this, I’ve stood on it and bent my knees a little (nowhere near an actual squat) for 15 seconds or so, and I’ve got a little 2lb hand weights and still standing on it, I do 4 curls, 4 lifts up and down over my head, 4 lifts to the side. I then turn at the waist (I can only go a small amount around, so far) in each direction. That takes me about 2 minutes or so. That’s it. Seriously, that is all I'm doing. My body feels as if it has worked out for a long time. I don’t quite understand how, but it does. The machine takes each direction up to (iirc) level 60 but I’m only on level 1. Haven’t gotten farther – don’t need to, at least not yet. I started and was on it for just over 1 minute that first time and felt like I’d worked out for an hour. A month later, I’m at 3+ minutes and feel like I’ve really worked out. My body is really responding. I’ve even started using it for 20 seconds before bed because after sitting all evening when I stand up I’m all stiff and if I just lay down in bed I spend an hour while my legs and back object and carry on. That 20 seconds of shaking sorts it all out and I sleep easily without all the leg and back foofaraw. I have a bad back and I was afraid this machine would be a bad thing, shaking me around. Not so. It is better than sliced bread, lol. If you’re a senior like me and you’re debating if you should get it or not due to cost and wondering if it really works, let this review encourage you. Go for it. Worth every single cent. I feel so much better. This gets bonus stars if they had them. Read more
So far, I love my new Rumblex Plus. I was encouraged to purchase a LifePro vibration machine by my Physical Therapist to help with Lipedema. Not only is it good for lymphatic system but apparently it also has benefits for pain relief, bone health, and general circulatory help. I have heard it may aid in weight loss too. As a middle aged lady, I would say that it will be beneficial in all aspects. I have had my unit for a week and so far it has been great. It appears to be well made and sturdy. I have used it daily at low speed for lymph support, the recommended 10 minutes a day. I have also used the pre programmed modes to help relieve pain in my lower back and legs in addition to this several times during the week. It feels nice and seems to help loosen tight muscles. It is a heavy duty machine. It came with instructions, a nice yoga type mat, arm bands that attach to the bottom of the machine, resistance bands, and a wrist remote (with battery). There are wheels to help with moving it. Set up was easy. I keep a bar stool next to the machine as a hand hold for stability. My Physical Therapist had a LifePro Waver. I like that this brand is preferred and recommended by health professionals. I also love that it has a lifetime warranty. I chose to get the Rumblex Plus for the extra functions and variety in programs. The higher speeds and vibrations are quite powerful. It may take some time before I use those. The wrist remote is such a great thought for safety and convenience! I’m very happy with my purchase. Looking forward to seeing some great results and using this nice machine to help support my health. Read more
Two weeks into my journey with the rumblex 4d pro. It is honestly crazy how much better I feel! I have been following Amber’s 30min workouts daily.(they are on YouTube and Facebook, there are also other instructors) I love Amber’s workout, I love how she pushes you and then dances so loosen up and back to pushing the burn, also love how motivating she is! I love how sturdy the platform is. After a few uses I have really figured out how to move freely on it and maintain my balance, with following the workouts there is a lot of toe taps while squatting or leg lifts or using sliders 1 leg on and 1 leg off the platform. At first I was wobbly and you could hear the suction cup bottom pop off the wood floors a bit (not tipping the platform, just breaking that suction and then going right back) now I know where to keep my center of gravity for the different movements and I am impressed with how much I can do. I am able to work out a lot harder than I ever have before without getting as sore. There was 1 day were I had to half the amount of weights I was using because I pushed a little too hard the day before but I recovered so quick! Getting on the platform that next day and going a little lighter allowed me to work that pain out and I felt so much better. I have also noticed that I am able to do more pushups and longer planks on the platform, I feel like it jiggles out the pain so I can keep going. My whole family is using it! My husband is doing daily workouts sometimes his own but also following some of Amber’s harder workouts. My kids are also in love. I have to limit their usage as they would stay on for hours if we let them. My 6yo daughter has started following some 10 minute kids workout videos, it’s impressive how she knows which movements to do on the platform and which she needs to move to the floor. Her balance has improved so much so quickly. She has a long way to learn the correct way to do the movements but she gives it her all and likes to do yoga after. My son is 4, the first week he was mostly standing on it and singing or sitting and playing with his cars. However this week, he has started to follow the workouts with me. He will stand beside or sit under me, he will use a 1.5lbs weight and follow the movements, grab a stretchy band and do the arm movements parallel to me on the other side of the platform. His favorite part is the Pilates squishy ball, so we slightly deflated one of their play balls for him and he will do his best to keep up. This is a fantastic platform, both the vibration platform and LifePro workouts on YouTube. A beautiful combo! Read more
