Galileo Research Facts No. 109: Can high frequencies increase muscle activation during Galileo Training?

This study tested muscle activation (EMG) of different muscles of the leg at different frequencies between 5 and 30Hz (pos. 5, slightly flexed legs). It showed that high frequencies (25-30Hz) can increase muscle activation by up to 5.5 times compared to low frequencies at 5Hz. Therefore Galileo Training targeting muscle hypertrophy and muscle power should be using high frequencies above 20 Hz to increase muscle activation...

Galileo Research Facts No. 101: Does Galileo Training trigger a stretch-reflex with each upwards movement of the platform?

This study proved that Galileo Training triggers a stretch reflex with each upwards movement of the platform. It also proved that the EMG signal corresponding to the vibration frequency is not a motion artifact but an actual activation of the corresponding muscle. The measured latency is therefore not dependent on the vibration frequency but on the individual and is identical with the latency caused by one single tilt movement...

Galileo Research Facts No. 96: Is muscle activity during Galileo Training related to different postures?

This study investigates the effects of different tilt-angles of the hip during Galileo Training on muscular activation (EMG) (10 sec., 0Hz/10HZ/20Hz, pos. 2, legs slightly flexed). The results show that muscular activation is strongly dependent on posture. The observed effects during Galileo Training depend on the tested muscle groups as well as frequency and can be as high as 2250%...

Galileo Research Facts No. 95: Does muscular activation with Galileo Training increase with increasing frequency?

This study investigates the effects of different frequencies during Galileo Training on muscular activation (EMG) (10 sec., 0Hz/10HZ/20Hz, pos. 2, legs slightly flexed). The results show that increasing frequencies cause increasing muscular activation. The observed effects during Galileo Training depend on the tested muscle groups as well as posture and can be as high as 2250%...

Galileo Research Facts No. 83: Can Galileo Training be more effective to improve muscle power than vertical vibration?

This study compare Galileo Training vs vertical vibration (Power Plate) (Gal: 26Hz, 2,5mm, PP:30Hz, 4mm, static & dynamic 90° squat, 4x60-100s, 10 weeks). All three groups received upper body strength training exercises, the Galileo and Power Plate groups additional vibration training. The Galileo groups showed after 10 weeks of training the highest average improvements in muscle function and muscle power...

Galileo Research Facts No. 81: Can Galileo Training improve blood flow and exhaust the muscles?

This study reported the effects of Galileo Training at high frequencies on blood flow and NO concentration in 58-83 year old individuals (26Hz, pos. 2, 30°-40° squat, 10x30s, 60s rest). The control group performed identical exercises without vibration. The Galileo groups showed significant improvements of blood flow during the training (+15%) and significant increase of NO concentration 5 minutes after the exercise (+43%)...

Galileo Research Facts No. 78: Do higher frequencies and knee angles increase pelvic floor activation?

This study examined during Galileo Training the effects of increasing frequencies and higher squatting angles on pelvic floor activation (EMG in relation to MVC, maximum voluntary contraction) (6-26Hz, 20°-40° squat, Pos. 3). The study shows that increasing knee angles and especially increasing frequencies significantly increase pelvic floor muscle activation up to 15%...

Galileo Research Facts No. 65: Can 7 minutes Galileo Training change the hormonal profile?

Diese Studie untersuchte den Effekt von lediglich 7 * 60 Sekunden Galileo Training auf die Sprungleistung und Hormonantwort (7 * 60 Sek., 30Hz, Pos. 5, 90° Kniebeuge). Das Galileo Training erhöhte die Spitzenleistung und Spitzensprunghöhe bei wiederholten Sprüngen um bis zu 13% und reduzierte Testosteron und Cortisol um bis zu 27% und zeigte somit Reaktionen analog zu intensivstem Krafttraining...

Galileo Research Facts No. 59: Are high frequencies for stretching more effective and lasting than mid frequencies?

This study examined for Galileo Training the effects of different frequencies on increase of flexibility (6 min. pos. 3, 20° bent knees, 15, 20, 30Hz). The control group performed the same exercises without vibration. ´The effects of Galileo Training on flexibility where significantly higher at mid frequencies (15 & 20Hz) compared do high frequencies (30 Hz). The differences where even higher 15 Minutes after the exercise...

Galileo Research Facts No. 39: Are exhaustion effects highest during Galileo Training itself?

This study reports short-term effects of Galileo Training on skin blood-flow and blood Nitirc Oxide (NO) concentration as an indicator for intense muscle work (10*30 sec., 26Hz, pos. 2, 35° bent knees). The Galileo group showed significant higher effects than the control group. In addition it was observed that skin blood flow was highest during training but NO concentration was increased massively 5 minutes after the training...
