Variation in neuromuscular responses during acute whole-body vibration exercise
PURPOSE: Leg muscle strength and power are increased after whole-body vibration (WBV) exercise. These effects may result from increased...
Strength, size and activation of knee extensors followed during 8 weeks of horizontal bed rest and the influence of a countermeasure
Changes in the quadriceps femoris muscle with respect to anatomical cross sectional area (CSA), neural activation level and muscle stre...
Highly demanding resistive vibration exercise program is tolerated during 56 days of strict bed-rest.
Several studies have tried to find countermeasures against musculoskeletal de-conditioning during bed-rest, but none of them yielded de...
Resistive Vibration Exercise Prevents Bone Loss During 8 Weeks of Strict Bed Rest in Healthy Male Subjects: Results from the Berlin Bed Rest (BBR) Study
