Abstract

The present invention relates to a fitness machine ( 1 ) for training the body, comprising a frame ( 2 ) with a vibrating element ( 3 ), a vibration generator ( 4 ) operatively connected to the vibrating element ( 3 ), and a vibration damper ( 5 ), it being possible to set the vibration damper ( 5 ) in such a way that said vibration damper can absorb to a selected degree vibration produced by the vibrating element ( 3 ), as a result of which a training load desired by the user can be obtained.
