Whole body vibration: What is all the fuss about?
Résumé
Whole body vibration (WBV) has been promoted in the market as a new method for exercising, by which 10min are more than enough for the fitness training of busy, modern people. Several companies have been over-stating the positive effects that this type of exercise has on the human body, advertising the general improvement in strength, flexibility and neuromuscular performance granted through it. The question needs to be asked: ‘Does WBV do what it is said to be doing?’. © 2010, MA Healthcare Ltd. All rights reserved.
