Galileo Research Facts No. 115: Can Galileo Training improve trunk flexibility and torque (force) of the knee?

Galileo Research Facts No. 115: Can Galileo Training improve trunk flexibility and torque (force) of the knee?

This study documented the effects of Galileo Training on flexibility and concentric knee torque in physical active young women (25Hz, pos.3, 2*5 min., 10° flexed legs, 5/week, 3 weeks). The control group continued their weekly training. The Galileo group received Galileo Training only and no other training. The Galileo group could improve concentric knee torque by up to 8% and flexibility (Sit & Reach Test) by 13%…

Galileo Research Facts No. 61: Are 5 minutes Galileo Mano Training (dumbbell) an effective warm up Training?

Galileo Research Facts No. 61: Are 5 minutes Galileo Mano Training (dumbbell) an effective warm up Training?

This study reported the warming up effects of 5 minutes Galileo Mano Training (Galileo vibrating dumbbell) compared to static exercises and arm ergometer training (5*1 min, 26Hz, 5 Exercises). The control groups performed the exercises without vibration or used an arm ergometer (5 Min., 25 W, 25 rpm). Only the Galileo group showed significant improvements in EMG intensity and peak power output of up to 6%…

Galileo Research Facts No. 60: Can Galileo Training be more effective than traditional warm up exercises?

Galileo Research Facts No. 60: Can Galileo Training be more effective than traditional warm up exercises?

This study examined the warm up effects of Galileo Training in comparison to traditional warm up (cycling ergometer) and static exercises (5 min., 26Hz, pos. 3, 5 exercises). The control groups used identical exercises without vibration and traditional cycling ergometer (5 min. 50 W, 50 rpm). Only the Galileo Groups showed significant improvements for jumping height and flexibility (sit & reach) of more than 8%…

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

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…
