Galileo Research Facts No. 149: Can Galileo Training significantly increase force and force development?

This study investigated the short-term effect of Galileo Training on muscle activation, muscle force and rate of force development (RFD). The control groups either received identical exercises (5 minutes 40° static squat) or cycling ergometer (5 minutes at 70W, another study showed that this resulted in the same temperature change as 5 minutes Galileo Training). The Galileo group received 5 minutes Galileo Training, 40° squat, position 3 at 26Hz. Maximum force a rate of force development was measured during electro stimulation (one single twitch) and during a patella reflex (triggered by a reflex hammer).

While the control groups did not show a relevant positive effect or even decreased, 5 minutes of Galileo Training could significantly increase force and rate of force development.

The results showed as #GRFS137, #GRFS129, #GRFS47, #GRFS38 how effective Galileo Training can be used as warm-up.
