This study of the group around Marco Toigo at the ETH of Zurich investigated the short-term effects (3h after exercise) of Galileo Training in combination with vascular occlusion (suppression of blood-flow in the legs over several minutes) on endurance muscle-fibers and their metabolism. Subjects of the study were trained endurance runners. In other publications of the group, they showed that this combination is very effective for endurance training (#GRFS11, #GRFS12) and that a single bout already stimulates Satellite cells (#GRFS33) as well as the individual effects of Galileo vs. occlusion (#GRFS33).
In this study they focused on cellular changes like the gene expression of TGC-1a (one of the most important activators for the endurance metabolism) as well as the growth of endurance muscle fibers (mRNA expression). The Effects were measured 3h after 2*60s Galileo Training + 180s vascular occlusion (30Hz, 90° dynamic squats, +70% 1RM extra load). The control group received identical training without vibration & occlusion.
As shown before the Galileo group showed significantly higher effects than the control group (resistance exercise) – for example the increase in TGC-1a by 350% and the about 3 times higher expression of mRNA (components of the endurance muscle fibers).
