Once again, Marco Toigo and his team at ETH Zurich have turned traditional training theory on its head: High Intensity Training (HIT) is an enormously demanding training programme with great effects on endurance (aerobic muscles). A typical example is the bicycle ergometer at very high loads (several thousand watts, i.e. far more than a standard ergometer can achieve), where the muscles are maximally exhausted over a few minutes (in this case 4).
The goal is to exhaust the muscles completely just in a few minutes (in this case just 4 minutes). Typically HIT has a significant negative effect on the fast twitch fibers (anaerobe muscles) which results in a significant decrease of anaerobe power and fiber cross sectional area. Well – up to now. Toigos group added in between sets just 3 minutes of Galileo Training at 18Hz (and 30Hz in an additional group) simply standing with bent knees on the Galileo. The astonishing result: The negative effects of HIT on anaerobe muscles and power could be completely compensated by the additional Galileo Training at 18 Hz while the positive Effects of HIT were not affected.
The study also shows that for this special purpose the Galileo Training at 18 Hz is about 20% more effective than at 30Hz. Another side-effect was, that the pause time could be reduced significantly (to the 3 Minutes). So whoever uses HIT should consider to add Galileo Training at 18 Hz for the rest phases in-between sets. But there is an even higher potential: keep in mind that Galileo Training can decrease muscle soreness after intense training by 50% (#GRFS1) and Creatinekinase by 40% (#GRFS5). In Addition stretching in between sets or after sets can increase the training effect of standard muscle exercises. So: Add Galileo to your workout!
