Actually, it sounds like a dream come true, letting the vibration of the plate work for you. Power plate vibration - ahhhhh. It definitely sounds like a good workout to me.

The Personal Vibration Trainer
Used by the National Academy of Sports Medicine, professional sports teams, medical rehabilitation, and fitness centers nationwide, the Personal Vibration Trainer is the low-impact trainer that uses varying vibration to cause muscles to involuntarily contract 30 to 50 times per second, stimulating circulation, strengthening bones, stretching tendons and deep-lying pelvic muscles, and resulting in faster recovery after workouts.

“Winner of the Popular Mechanics Editor’s Choice Award at the Consumer Electronics Show, this is the remote-controlled ornithopter that replicates the rhythmic flapping and flight pattern of a dragonfly to stay aloft without the use of propellers or gas engines. The device has four Mylar wings that flap 500 times per minute, generating enough lift to send the ornithopter up to 50 feet in the air. The remote control has two toggle sticks and a trim dial that provide precise control as the ornithopter flutters, soars, dives, and glides indoors or outside.”
“Ready to fly out of the box, this fully-assembled remote-control helicopter allows beginners to test their flying skills indoors in large, open areas, and at heights up to 100′ outdoors. Equipped with operating navigational lights for nighttime flights, the toy helicopter has a counter-balanced rotational drive that keeps the dual coaxial rotors counter-synchronized for stability. The dual-frequency transmitter controls vertical movement up to a range of 200′ for four minutes before requiring a recharge on the included recharge pad, which revitalizes the built-in battery in five minutes.”
“This palm-sized helicopter has two contra-rotating coaxial rotors that use gyroscopic inertia to keep the copter balanced and two micro-motors that spin the rotors at varying speeds, resulting in precise and effortless 360 movement up to a range of 50′. Its sleek plastic frame has a tail boom, tail fin, and four landing legs, resulting in a small footprint, making it ideal for indoor flight.”
“This is the remote controlled helicopter that can be maneuvered by beginning flight enthusiasts through doorways and hallways indoors, and up to a range of 1,000′ outdoors, because it has counter-rotating rotors that eliminate the unstabilizing effects of angular momentum, a condition common to all traditional helicopters. Unlike other dual-rotor toy helicopters that simply hover, this one uses motors that generate twice the torque of other motors, and it comes with a four channel transmitter with proportional throttle and trim settings that allow you to control the angle of attack of each rotor, which allows the helicopter to be precisely controlled up and down, rotated in-place left and right, pitched forward and backward, and rolled left and right.”
