When performing exercises using WBV, are there any differences compared to traditional strength training?
Scientific research has shown that training on a vibration plate has similar effects as traditional power training. In fact, the positive effects come even faster. And vibration plate training certainly is more efficient. In a conventional training session, only 40% of the muscle fibers are exercised; with Whole Body Vibration or WBV training that percentage nears the 100% mark. And it is not only the muscle tissue that reacts. Application of WBV also has a positive effect on tendon tissue, bone tissue, the nervous system and hormonal balances. Be aware that the heart is the most important muscle. And although WBV trains the heart somewhat, it is advised to combine WBV with cardio training.
