The acute effects of whole body vibration stimulus warm-up on skill-related physical capabilities in volleyball players.

Whole body vibration (WBV) has been suggested to improve athletes' neuromuscular strength and power. This study investigated the effect of single WBV stimulation on volleyball-specific performance. The participants were 20 elite male volleyball players who performed a 1-min warm-up exercise on a vibration platform at a frequency of 30 Hz and peak-to-peak displacement of 2 mm.
