Jump power and force have distinct associations with cortical bone parameters: findings from a population enriched by individuals with high bone mass.
CONTEXT: Little is known of the relationships between muscle function and bone, based on the recently developed technique of jumping me...
Whole body vibration training – improving balance control and muscle endurance.
Exercise combined with whole body vibration (WBV) is becoming increasingly popular, although additional effects of WBV in comparison to...
Effect of a combination of whole body vibration exercise and squat training on body balance, muscle power, and walking ability in the elderly.
A randomized controlled trial was conducted to clarify the beneficial effect of whole body vibration (WBV) exercise plus squat training...
Study protocol, implementation, and verification of a short versatile upright exercise regime during 5 days of bed rest.
Objectives: This work provides a reference for future papers originating from this study by providing basic results on body mass, urine...
Preferential deposition of visceral adipose tissue occurs due to physical inactivity.
We hypothesized that strict inactivity (bed-rest) would lead to regional differences in fat deposition. Twenty-four male subjects under...
Untersuchungen zur Optimierung des körperlichen Trainings bei Frauen mit postmenopausal verminderter Knochendichte
Hintergrund: Der Erhalt von neuromuskularen Funktionen und einer tragfahigen

Effects of whole-body vibration on postural balance and proprioception in healthy young and elderly subjects: a randomized cross-over study.
Aim: The aim of this paper was to investigate the effects of the whole-body vibration (WBV) intervention on neuromuscular performances ...
In vivo measurements of the effect of whole body vibration on spinal loads.
PURPOSE: It is assumed that whole body vibration (WBV) improves muscle strength, bone density, blood flow and mobility and is therefor...
