Brief summary

The aim of the study was to examine the effect of six-week constant, low frequency and low amplitude Whole Body Vibration training on the strength and mechanical properties of the lower limb knee extensors and ankle joint dorsi flexor muscles.

Detailed description

Interventions

DEVICEWhole-body vibration training

Whole body vibration (WBV) is a form of treatment that has been shown to have an important role in increasing neuromuscular performance, improving muscular strength, balance. The technique involves standing and holding positions, or performing prescribed exercises, on a platform that is vibrating at a programmed frequency, amplitude, and magnitude of oscillationWhole-body vibration (WBV) is a therapeutic method that exposes the entire body to mechanical oscillations while the patient stands or sits on a vibrating platform.
