I started using the Marodyne LiV four weeks ago. I use it three times a day. I’m happy with my decision to spend the money. It’s become an important part of my new fitness regimen. I’m following Margaret Martin strength training videos. Just bought the box weights. I’m feeling pretty strong.

Hi @dmanduca, I got an email from Margaret Martin last week with a recent report about the effectiveness of LIV platform exerciser. (After her report on Vibration Therapy I stopped using the High Intensity Vibration exerciser I had been using for nine months). I checked the LIV out at Marodyne and noticed the price has come down. Unfortunately, it cannot be placed on carpeting and our whole house is carpeted, except for the kitchen, so at this time, I don't have anywhere I could put it. I think it would be good for my husband to use as he has Alzheimer's Disease and osteoporosis.
I've been doing Dr. Loren Fishman's 12 Poses vs Osteoporosis (yoga) to improve my bone density nearly everyday, and just purcased the DVD of the second series of poses. Even the simple poses are too complex for my husband.
I haven't ruled the Marodyne LIV out, but need to get creative about where it could be placed or find some kind of platform I could place it on. I'm open to suggestions.
