“…Also, some of the players had poor technique in performing basic strength exercises which explains the fact that several players improved 1RMBS by nearly 50% just by learning proper techniques. Such individual improvement was notably higher in 3 participants in VRTG, hypothetically indicating that WBV might enhance motor learning development (Fereydounnia & Shadmehr, 2020).…”

We aimed to investigate whether the addition of whole-body vibration (WBV) to resistance training (RT) will be more beneficial in improving lower limbs muscle strength, power and sprinting performance than RT alone in young basketball players. We recruited 30 young basketball players to participate in four weeks of training and assessments. They were randomized into the WBV resistance training group (VRTG, n=15) and a conventional resistance training group (RTG, n=15), performed 3 times per week. At the beginning and end of the four weeks a back squat one-repetition maximum (1RMBS), Countermovement jump (CMJ), Squat jump (SJ), 10 meters (10m) and 20 meters sprint (20m) were performed. We found that: a) VRTG when added to RT can induce greater improvements in 1RMBS (percentage difference [PD], 8.4%, p < 0.001), CMJ (PD = 4.7%, p = 0.001) and SJ (PD = 1.6, p = 0.02) than RT alone. In contrary, significant time*group interactions were found for sprint times at 10m (p=0.08, F=3.2) and 20m (p=0.17, F=1.93). An additional 4-week WBV resistance training program proved effective in improving lower limb power and strength in young basketball players. When performed on a vibration platform (with accurate and constant vibration stimulus parameters), the resistance exercises were superior to their conventional forms and resulted in additional gains on measures of muscle power and strength, while sprint performance remained unchanged.

“…In this case, the MV produced in the VP is transmitted to whole body of the subject. WBV exercise can lead to physiological responses that contributes to increasing power and muscle strength [45][46][47], decrease the pain [48,49] and fatigue [50,51], improve the QoL [49,52], improve quality of the sleep [53], and aid with neuro-cognition and mental disturbances [54][55][56]. Considering the lung commitments, WBV exercises can decrease the risk of dyspnea [51] and improve QoL [57].…”

“…WBV exercise seems to improve parameters related to the cognition. Amonette et al, 2015 [90]; Regterschot et al, 2014 [91]; and den Heijer et al, 2014 [92] investigated the effects of whole-body vibration exercise on neurocognition in healthy subjects, Lam et al, 2018 [93] in mild or moderate dementia and Kim & Lee, 2018 [56] in women with senile dementia, Fuermaier et al, 2014 [94,95] study in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) individuals and Fereydounnia et al, 2020 [54] in women with lumbar hyper-lordosis. These authors performed their experiments using different mechanisms (vibration vertical and alternating vibration) and different models of the vibrating platform.…”

Whole-Body Vibration Exercise: A Possible Intervention in the Management of Post COVID-19 Complications?

et al. 2021

COVID-19 infection frequently leaves the infected subjects with impairments of multi-organs, the so-called post COVID-19 syndrome, which needs to be adequately addressed. The perspective of this narrative review is to verify the possible role of whole-body vibration exercise in the post-COVID-19 rehabilitation of these patients. Publications reporting the use of WBV exercises to counteract fatigue, muscle weakness, neurological manifestations, pain, quality of life, quality of sleep, lung commitments, and mental conditions in different clinical conditions were selected. Considering all the findings described in the current review, it seems that WBV exercise might be potentially useful and effective in the rehabilitation of post COVID-19 syndrome, being able to positively influence fatigue, muscle weakness, and quality of life without any side-effects. Controlled studies are mandatory to define the best protocols to be proposed, which need to be tailored to the individual and clinical characteristics.

“…Evidence related to the cognitive enhancing effect of WBV in a standing posture is limited. Two studies provided positive acute effects of vertical WBV in a standing posture on reaction time [ 49 ], cognitive function and brain activation measured with Electroencephalography (EEG) [ 50 ] in fragile populations aged 65 years and older. Active exercises with vertical WBV revealed conflicting results.…”

Short-term effects of side-alternating Whole-Body Vibration on cognitive function of young adults

et al. 2023

Recent research in rodents and humans revealed that Whole-Body Vibration (WBV) is beneficial for cognitive functions. However, the optimal WBV conditions are not established: contrary to vertical WBV, side-alternating WBV was not investigated before. The present study investigated the short-term effects of side-alternating WBV in standing and sitting posture on specific cognitive function of young adults. We used a balanced cross-over design. Sixty healthy young adults (mean age 21.7 ± 2.0 years, 72% female) participated. They were exposed to three bouts of two-minute side-alternating WBV (frequency 27 Hz) and three control conditions in two different sessions. In one session a sitting posture was used and in the other session a standing (semi-squat) posture. After each condition selective attention and inhibition was measured with the incongruent condition of the Stroop Color-Word Interference Test. WBV significantly (p = 0.026) improved selective attention and inhibition in the sitting posture, but not in the standing posture. The sitting posture was perceived as more comfortable, joyous and less exhaustive as compared to the standing posture. This study demonstrated that side-alternating WBV in sitting posture improves selective attention and inhibition in healthy young adults. This indicates that posture moderates the cognitive effect of WBV, although the effects are still small. Future studies should focus on the working mechanisms and further optimization of settings, especially in individuals who are unable to perform active exercise.
