    Ok ladies.

    I've paid £169 for a "6 week challenge" at a Powerplates studio who tell me that 100% of clients who do this lose inches! I am so desperate to get back down to what I was in January (I've gained 7lbs fast!) which is making me really miserable.

    Basically I have to do 3 classes per week for 6 weeks (they're only 30 mins classes). First session tonight.

    Hopefully at the end of the 6 weeks I'll be pleased with any results.

    Will keep you updated. Wish me luck!

    Thanks hun. A 25 minute workout on the powerplates is equivalent to a 1 hour workout usually so great if you don't have lots of time. It's supposed to be great for toning too. I did powerplates before Christmas last year but because I was doing so much other sport I couldn't tell if it actually worked and only did a handful of sessions too. So this time, fingers crossed I get results and can get back to what I was and maintain it xx

    Have not used powerplates but have used vibration plates and can teach people how to use them. Have been told that powerplates are not very nice on the head as they go up and down and side to side.

    Hopefully they will get you to do some active movement rather than just standing, squatting etc as they really work the muscles and get heartrate going.

    I know they work so good luck and I am sure you will get the results you are looking for.

    Lol - I'd suggest getting a 1-2-1 with a personal trainer for a session, they'll show you what to do xx

    Right, 1 week in, 3 sessions later, still flabby but I can feel my muscles as slightly sore. I am sooooooooooo unfit!!!!

    I definitely need to do more


    I am hoping that in 5 weeks time I will be all toned and at least an inch smaller around the waist ............think I need to eat healthier though.
