Discover 206 Reasons Why NASA, Russian Cosmonauts & Olympic Athletes Use Whole Body Vibration

The adult human body has 206 bones.
An infant may have from 300-350 bones at birth.
Some of these fuse together as the infant grows.
The human skeleton forms the foundation for the structure and frame of our bodies.
Together with the muscles, joints, tendons and ligaments, these 206 bones allow us to live, move and have our being on this planet.
Sadly, as most Americans age, their bone density decreases, and mobility is greatly reduced and sometimes even lost (as in the case of people bound to a wheelchair).
The quality of life is very limited if your mobility is limited.
If you are reading this article and you still enjoy good health and mobility, then realize that the information here could alter your future for the better.
Instead of decline, your body's bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments and joint can remain strong, flexible and fully functional up to 100 years and beyond.
ASIDE: According to JAMA (July 25, 2007 edition) more than 30,000 hip fractures occur every year.
And it is these hip fractures that are one of the main reasons why people end up in a nursing home.
Whole body vibration exercise is perfect for people who want a serious solution for avoiding falls, brittle bones and hip fractures (as we will see next).
So now we come to the connection between the Russian space program and increased strength in bones and muscles.
The Russians realized that out in space away from the Earth's gravity, cosmonauts experienced extremely accelerated bone and muscle loss (along with other complications like blood clots).
This presented a huge problem for the duration these astronauts could remain in space.
The Russian space program used a technologycalled whole body vibration training (or vibration therapy) as a way to simulate weight bearing loads for their cosmonauts, before, during and after trips in outer space.
Whole body vibration exercise is a way to mimic gravity where no gravity exists, thus helping the cosmonauts to keep their bone mineral density high and their muscles strong.
Partly because of this technology the Russians shattered all the records for living the longest in space.
Also instead of coming back from outer space on stretchers, the astronauts returned as strong as when they left.
Have you ever wondered why the Russians were so dominant in the Olympics in the 1980's.
That's right, their athletes used this secret form of exercise that the rest of the world (at the time) did not know about.
So I think you realize by now that the author of this article is not going to list 206 reasons you need whole body vibration, as naming all the bones in the body is something he has long forgotten since college.
But the author does remember the femur is the longest bone, the bones in the inner ear are the smallest and half our bones are in our hands and feet.
These bones along with muscles, joints, tendons and ligaments give your body mobility, motion, movement and animation.
I cannot give you a better reason to invest in and start using this technology right away.
