confound me, but have i lately broached the exercise phenomenon known as vibrate-till-your-ass-muscles-buckle? the nomenclature of this form of exercise, a.k.a power plates, is the latest craze which has taken over hollywood by storm led by the honchos of celebs like madonna and clint eastwood. power plates uses the principle of acceleration training to simulate the body's natural response to vibration. a 25-minute workout is equivalent to two to three hours in the gym!
cookiedough needs to feel his abs.
four more abs to go to an adonis body.
the solution to it all: power plates!
me with paul in tow.
the folks at croyez studio (pronounced as 'krwah-yay'), which is located at dempsey road, invited me and my intrepid crony paul to give a shot at being a powerplater. verdict: fifteen minutes into the exercise and i was sweating crazy my underarm deodorant smelled like fresh pine that was one day too old. not pleasant at all. my forecast for next few days is intense muscle aches with high possibility of torrential cramps.
a myriad of power plate regimes to cater to different individuals.
jane, our sprightly coach, feigning niceness. devil incarnate!
power plates proves to be not as easy as it looks.
a big thank-you to gwendolyn, the owner of croyez.
am i going back for more of this? you betcha. i just need to invest in more potent sweatsticks. to find out more about this revolutionary exercise, call 6474 4133/6474 4140 or visit their website at www.croyez.com.sg.
in other news, my office is piling with trash. evidently, there isn't a system for taking out the dump. our office has three waste bins and no one clears it fastidiously enough that fruit-flies have been growing amongst them. this morning i went digging through the pile and fished out a wrapped sandwich that went bad almost a week ago. i am going to go all pep-talky on these spudhead staff real soon.

(anon) as always, you too, tinks.
(gunart84) it's a machine that forces yours muscles to contract and expand at a certain frequency, accelerated training. you can customize it to your training level so it doesn't wear you out that fast.
(km) the machine for a home use one costs about $4,000. a studio type will set you back by about $20,000.
(no name) it was fun alright. haa, in fact, this exercise releases seratonin, which makes one feel good.
(anon2) she's going on a routine already, and it's been working out well for her.
