EMG activity during whole body vibration: motion artifacts or stretch reflexes
The validity of electromyographic (EMG) data recorded during whole body vibration (WBV) is controversial. Some authors ascribed a major...
Voluntary activation of the ankle plantar flexors following whole-body vibration
This study investigated the effect of whole-body vibration (WBV) on the voluntary activation of the ankle plantar flexors. Twelve healt...
Acute whole-body vibration elicits post-activation potentiation.
Whole-body vibration (WBV) leads to a rapid increase in intra-muscular temperature and enhances muscle power. The power-enhancing effec...
Comparison of pQCT parameters between ulna and radius in retired elite gymnasts: the skeletal benefits associated with long-term gymnastics are bone- and site-specific
Objectives: To compare the skeletal benefits associated with gymnastics between ulna and radius. Methods: 19 retired artistic gymnasts,...
Age-dependency in bone mass and geometry: a pQCT study on male and female master sprinters, middle and long distance runners, race-walkers and sedentary people
Objective: To investigate whether athletic participation allows master athletes to preserve their good bone health into old age. Method...
Resistive vibration exercise reduces lower limb muscle atrophy during 56-day bed-rest
Objectives: The current study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a resistive vibration exercise countermeasure during prolonged bed-...
Influence of vibration resistance training on knee extensor and plantar flexor size, strength, and contractile speed characteristics after 60 days of bed rest
Spaceflight and bed rest (BR) result in loss of muscle mass and strength. This study evaluated the effectiveness of resistance training...
