Pricing: What to Consider

The price of the Power Plate Move is nearly double the price of the Personal Power Plate. If you are on a budget, the Personal is a good choice. However, if you have the money to spend and want more options, go for the Move. Plus, there is a discount available on the page, and a free massage gun comes with either unit.

Surface Area: Size Matters

The Personal Power Plate has a surface area of 28" by 19" and the MOVE's surface area has a surface area of 30" by 24".

More surface allows for a larger variation of workouts.  If you are concerned about the surface area for your workouts, the Move is the better option, with 35% more space. Even though the Personal is slightly smaller, it still provides ample room for push-ups, planks, lunges, or strap workouts, and you will still feel the vibration working.


Weight: Consider Portability

The Personal is the lighter of the two, making it easy to move around or take with you on trips or to a friend's place for workouts. The Move is also manageable to move around, but it is heavier at 87 lbs. If you have a dedicated workout space and don't need to move it often, then the weight won't matter as much.  


Time Selections: More Options with Move

The Personal has only two timer options of 30 or 60 seconds, which can be adjusted with the included remote control. The Move has many more timer options, including a 9-minute timer, giving you longer workout options. It can go for up to 9 minute intervals with more levels of HZ, high and low.


Frequency Range: More Levels with Move

The Move has a range of 30-40 Hz and six different frequency levels to choose from throughout your workout, while the Personal has only one preset frequency of 35 Hz.


Maximum Capacity Load for User: Move Allows for More Weight

The Move has a capacity of 300 lbs, while the Personal has a capacity of 264 lbs. If you are concerned about the weight of users, go with the Move, which allows for more weight.


What's Included with Both Units?

Both units come with hand straps (set of 2), a rubber mat, a remote control, power cord, quick start guide, and instructions for use. The Personal also comes with a canvas carrying bag for traveling and on-the-go workouts.

What can a Power Plate bring to your workouts?


Power Plate can enhance your workouts without compromising any performance. In fact, the Power Plate Personal and Power Plate Move can help you reach your goals quicker and more effectively. They are whole-body vibration machines that are compact in size so you can use them at home or even in the office.

Both can be moved around to a different room in the house or bring them on the road if you are traveling and need a quick workout. If you are looking for a vibration trainer that you can incorporate into your home workouts, both the Personal and Move are great options.

Giving you a great combination of size and function, the Move and Personal amplify the benefits of smaller movements without the use of any weights. Workouts are low impact and available to everyone from elite athletes to older people. Both vibration machines will provide you with a total body workout in less time than your traditional exercise workout.

Studies have shown that Power Plate users lose twice as much fat over six months compared to users who do diet and simple fitness alone. Adding either the Personal or Move will bring you to the next level by stimulating natural reflexes, increasing muscle activation, and improving circulation.

Both products will give you the patented Advanced Vibration technology that oscillates in three different planes (up and down, side to side, and front to back). Power Plate's whole-body vibration technology has been scientifically established to speed up health and fitness benefits to deliver faster, longer–lasting results.
