Power Plate Academy

Recently I went to my first PowerPlate class at the Academy. This studio was originally located at Selfridges London but moved to its new location in April 2012. I had used PowerPlate prior to this at my local gym but since my membership there ended, I decided to try PowerPlate classes and complement these with some running when the weather outside is good.
Upon arrival I had to fill in and sign a health questionaire and the four of us started the training. Our instructor asked about injuries and showed the excercises. A 30 minute class includes around 15 different excercises as well as a warm-​up and a stretch.
Being new to the classes, I felt exhausted after the class. During the class one regularly works up to the maximum and sweating is normal. It gets quite hot in there. Afterwards it was a bit like walking on air for an hour or so. Even a few days later I could feel my muscles, so this was a very intense training.
Classes are quite expensive. Therefore I would advise anyone with a tight budget to book a package and train towards a specific goal (holiday, wedding etc.). Additionally you should always try to do some cardio training to complement your workout.
