Standing on a vibrating platform helps those abs
Categories: Fitness
This piece of news was rather hilarious to read, but here goes: a researcher in Maine believes that standing on a vibrating platform for 15 minutes per day could help many of us develop those six-pack abs.I can almost hear the multiple, 3:00am infomercials for products like this now. The research involved putting mice on a vibrating platform for 15 minutes per day over a period of 15 weeks. You know, since humans walk upright and mice don't. But, back to the research.
The mice, after 15 weeks, developed 27 percent fewer abdominal fat cells and saw a decrease in their liver triglyceride levels, all while losing no weight. Wow.
