Defending Champions Return to Wimbledon

IRVINE, Calif., June 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Returning to Wimbledon to defend their titles, both Rafael Nadal and Serena Williams are utilizing Power Plate® equipment, which is scientifically proven to reduce muscle pain, soreness and expedite the recovery of damaged muscles and tendons.

"This is a part of the way I work out regularly," top-seeded Nadal has said of Power Plate exercise.  "At the end, work is what makes you feel satisfaction."

After nearly a year off the court due to injury and illness, Serena seeded eighth, began her comeback last week with a 3-set victory at the Aegon International tournament.

Both are world-class athletes and we are proud to have them on the Power Plate team," commented Mark de Gorter, President of Power Plate North America.
