Can WBV Device training improve flexibility?
Yes, all muscles and joints that are stretched during the training are fully mobilized. The vibration also loosens adhesions, which positively influences flexibility even more. Research has shown that stretch exercises with vibration gave a greater increase in flexibility than stretch exercises alone. By using the “WBV” Device in different positions (as shown on our exercise-poster) it is possible to stretch different muscles. The Golgi tendon organs are activated during training, which promotes a high measure of relaxation (tendon-reflex). An extra advantage is that muscles are lengthened in a functional and active position, while not decreasing explosive muscle strength.
