“…The recommendations to achieve greater health benefits are given either by increasing the time or the energy. And as some studies show [10,11] both cardio-metabolic health and reduction in mortality will benefit most from vigorous activities, while mental health is more influenced by the time spent in PA. In addition, in our study, we found that to reduce the risk of depression, it is necessary to increase the levels of moderate physical activity above 300 min per week or perform 150 min of vigorous physical activity per week, or an equivalent combination.…”

Background: An inverse association between total leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) and depression has been previously documented in the scientific literature. Our objective was to prospectively assess the association of LTPA with the risk of depression, focusing on several dimensions of LTPA (intensity, duration and type). Methods: The SUN (Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra) project is a prospective cohort study formed by Spanish university graduates. A total of 15,488 adults (40.2% men, mean age 37 ± 12 years) initially free of depression were assessed. A report of a validated medical diagnosis of depression or the habitual use of antidepressants (any of both) were considered as incident cases of depression. LTPA was estimated through previously validated selfreported questionnaires. Participants were classified following Physical Activity recommendations from the World Health Organization, and according to the intensity, duration and type of LTPA. Cox proportional hazards regression models were run, adjusted for demographic, lifestyle, and dietary factors, to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (HR) of depression and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: During 163,059 person-years of follow-up we registered 870 incident cases of depression. Participants with higher total LTPA (METs-h/wk) and higher duration of LTPA (hours/wk) exhibited a lower risk of depression HR = 0.84 (95% CI: 0.72-0.99) and HR = 0.83 (0.70-0.99) respectively, whereas intensity of LTPA (MET) did not show any association with depression. Conclusion: Participants with higher LTPA had a lower risk of depression. The inverse association was stronger for total LPTA time than for its intensity. Higher duration of LTPA should be encouraged to prevent depression.

“…Different studies have been published reinforcing the favorable and consistent effects of LTPA on cardiometabolic disease [10,11] and cancer [12]. LTPA has beneficial effects over mental health diseases, such as depression, anxiety and stress, and also over quality of life [13,14].…”

“…Experimental studies with outcomes such as metabolic syndrome, cardiorespiratory fitness, blood pressure and lipid profiles [17][18][19][20] indicate that the benefits of one minute of vigorous activity outweigh those of two minutes of moderate activity. Inverse associations between vigorous activity and obesity found in this study may be partly driven by favorable adaptations to lipid metabolism and other biological pathways.…”

“… 22 The WBV exercise can be considered a feasible, safe, and low-cost technique to the improvement of health in various populations. 19 – 22 Biomechanical parameters, such as the frequency and the peak-to-peak displacement of the mechanical vibration, must be considered in the WBV exercise protocols. 23 Wei et al 24 consider low frequency (20 Hz), medium frequency (40 Hz), and high frequency (60 Hz).…”

Acute Effects of Whole-Body Vibration on the Pain Level, Flexibility, and Cardiovascular Responses in Individuals With Metabolic Syndrome

The aim of the study was to assess the acute effect of whole-body vibration (WBV) exercise, with low frequency (5 Hz), on the pain level (PL), trunk flexibility, and cardiovascular responses (blood pressure [BP] and heart rate [HR]) in individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Forty-four individuals were included in the study (control: 15) or in (WBV exercise: 29) groups. They were submitted to 3 bouts (1 minute each) of WBV exercise (5 Hz and peak-to-peak displacements of 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 mm, corresponding to peak accelerations of 0.12, 0.25, and 0.35 g, respectively, sitting in a chair with the feet on the platform with knees flexed, followed by 1 minute of interset rest. The Control Group performed the same protocol, but the platform was turned off. The PL was measured through the visual analog pain scale, and the flexibility was measured through the anterior trunk flexion test. Significant improvements on PL (P = .031) and flexibility (P = .004) were found only in the WBV exercise group. The BP and HR remained at physiological levels. In conclusion, the WBV exercise would lead to physiological response decreasing PL and increasing flexibility as well as maintaining the cardiovascular responses in individuals with MetS.
