Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to understand how whole-body vibration (WBV) affects the neuromuscular function of the hamstrings and quadriceps in healthy individuals, which is important for performance recommendations.
- Nineteen recreationally active participants were tested on different days with WBV and control exercises, measuring muscle activity and strength before, immediately after, and 20 minutes post-exercise.
- Results showed that WBV significantly reduced electrical activity in the hamstrings during knee flexion, while the effect on quad activity varied, indicating an inconsistent response to WBV in healthy individuals.
