Shake Your Way To Massive Muscles With Vibrating Dumbbells

As if we don’t have enough fitness items that vibrate, BodyVib has developed a set of dumbbells that vibrate at 2160 vibrations per minute. These battery-powered weights supposedly help you build muscle mass faster than traditional stationary dumbbells.

I can’t attest to the claims of their muscle building prowess, but I will say this — you may want to work on your brain mass instead of your muscle mass if you even thinking about buying them. The BodyVib weights come in 1.5kg, 2.7kg and 4.5kg pairs and retail for a bewildering £649 ($965) to £729 ($1083). [Pro-Idee via Oh Gizmo]

    I guess if you’re silly enough to believe they work, then you’re silly enough to actually buy them Eh!! #]

    Couldn’t you just buy 3kg weights and then tape vibrators to it? It’d have much the same effect and the batteries would add weight
