Conditions
Interventions
The intervention used in this study will be the whole body vibration exercise (WBVE) in subjects with metabolic syndrome.
The subjects (500) will be distributed in two groups (250 each), as: (i) WBVE
(ii) from the second to tenth session – the subject will be in a stand position with the barefoot, on the base of the oscillating/vibratory platform, with knees flexed (130 o). The hands will be place
(ii) 1 minute in the local corresponding to 5 mm peak to peak displacement, following by 1 minute of rest and (iii) 1 minute in the local corresponding to 7.5 mm peak to peak displacement, following

Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Blood pressure higher than 180 x 110 mmHg; Cardiovascular disease in the last 6 months due to heart attack or stroke; Neurological, muscular or rheumatological disease that limit the movements on the oscillating/vibratory platform; Severe or incapacitant clinical disease; Patients that refuse to sign the Agreement Term to participate in the study.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Significant improvement (p<0.05) of funcionality and quality of life in patients with metabolic syndrome due the perform of the 10 (ten) sessions of whole body vibration exercise. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Improvement of clinical and metabolic parameters evaluated through laboratorial dosages, reducing the level of cardiovascular risks related to the progression of the metabolic syndrome. Improvement of the functionality of the subjects with metabolic syndrome, verified through of the Short Physical Performance Battery, and the flexibility evaluation. Improvement the quality of life of individuals with metabolic syndrome evaluated through the WHOQol – Bref questionnaire. Reduction of the pain of the individuals with metabolic syndrome evaluated through of the visual analogic scale. | — |
