Resistive vibration exercise attenuates bone and muscle atrophy in 56 days of bed rest: biochemical markers of bone metabolism
During and after prolonged bed rest, changes in bone metabolic markers occur within 3 days. Resistive vibration exercise during bed res...
Changes in joint angle, muscle-tendon complex length, muscle contractile tissue displacement, and modulation of EMG activity during acute whole-body vibration
It has been suggested that vibration causes small changes in muscle length, but to the best of our knowledge, these have yet to be demo...
Effect of prolonged bed rest on the anterior hip muscles
Prolonged bed rest and inactivity is known to cause muscular atrophy with previous research indicating that muscles involved in joint s...
Prevention of bone loss during 56 days of strict bed rest by side-alternating resistive vibration exercise
Bed rest is a recognized model for muscle atrophy and bone loss in space flight and in clinical medicine. We hypothesized that whole bo...
Vibration as an exercise modality: how it may work, and what its potential might be
Whilst exposure to vibration is traditionally regarded as perilous, recent research has focussed on potential benefits. Here, the physi...
Rundum fit durch ganzheitliches Muskeltraining
Gut definiert in den Sommer. Seitenalternierendes Vibrationstraining - eine zeitsparende Methode zum ganzheitlichen Muskelaufbau.
Mit Schüttelplatten zur optimalen Badi-Figur
Wie sich die Kombination von Kraft und Ausdauer mittels neuer Trainingsformen erreichen lässt, zeigen Forscher der ETH und der Uni Zürich unter Studienleiter Marco Toigo. Diese setzen in ihren Studien die Galileo-Vibrationsplatte ein.
Handheld vibration effects shoulder motion
We explored effects of handheld vibration on glenohumeral motion in competitive overhead-throwing athletes. We used a randomized, blind...
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...
Medizin aus dem All
Der Weltraum – trotz modernster Technik ist der Aufenthalt im All auch heute noch ein Wagnis. Je länger sich die Astronauten da oben au...
