Muscle weakness

Interventions

Volunteers were randomly distributed, using the online software Randomization.com, in two groups: the Strengthening Group with Vibration, with 22 volunteers, who performed isometric abdominal exercise
Speed: Vibrations from 26Hz to 45Hz
Frequency: 50 / 60Hz), and the upper limbs remained supported on a fixed, stable surface at the same height as the platform base. The vibrating platform was adjusted to a frequency of 30Hz and 2 mm of

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Increased electrical activity of the rectus abdominis muscle, assessed using an 8-channel electromyograph (model W4X8, Biometrics Ltd., UK), through intra and intergroup comparison for a 5% significance level. Increase in the cutaneous temperature of the abdominal region, assessed by means of a thermographic camera model FLIR T360, through intra and intergroup comparison for a significance level of 5%.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
507/5000 Reduction of waist circumference measures, measured by means of a tape measure, through intra and intergroup comparison to a significance level of 5%. Reduction of abdominal and suprailiac skinfolds measured by a CESCORF plicometer, through intra- and intergroup comparison to a significance level of 5%. Abdominal fat percentage reduction, measured by means of a Tanita bioimpedance scale, through intra and intergroup comparison to a 5% significance level.—
