Brief summary

This study makes sure that the training of whole body vibration induces changes in ergospirometric parameters, in strength and influence in quality of life in healthy elderly. A case that is run like a vibration training combined, increasing strength and VO2.

Detailed description

The search use the spirometric values after whole body vibration training and resistance training
