Article Synopsis
- Mitochondrial issues and redox imbalance are linked to the development of fibromyalgia (FM), and previous studies suggest whole-body vibration training (WBVT) could help improve these problems in women with FM.
- The study involved 40 women with FM who were split into two groups: one receiving WBVT and the other remaining untrained; their body composition and various blood markers were assessed before and after a 6-week period.
- Results showed that after WBVT, women had increased irisin levels, reduced oxidative stress markers, and lower visceral fat compared to those who did not train, indicating improved body composition and cell health.*

(1) The evidence points to an increase in oxygen reactive species as one of the possible causes of fibromyalgia (FM). In addition, it is plausible that an imbalance in redox markers can be associated with pain amplification and dynapenia in FM patients. The aim of our study was to investigate possible factors associated with muscle pain and lean body mass in FM patients.

Article Synopsis
- This study explored the effects of whole-body vibration (WBV) on neuromuscular control and handgrip strength in women with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
- Twenty-one women participated in three different five-minute conditions: control (resting), sham (vibration platform off), and WBV (vibration platform on).
- Results indicated that WBV significantly reduced the neural ratio, suggesting improved neuromuscular efficiency during handgrip exercises in participants with stable RA.
Whole body vibration in the static modified push-up position in untrained healthy women stimulates neuromuscular system potentiating increased handgrip myogenic response.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the effects of whole-body vibration (WBV) on handgrip strength and muscle activity during a push-up position in healthy women.
- Twenty-eight women underwent four different tests: control (no vibration), placebo (simulated vibration), low vibration, and high vibration.
- Results showed that high vibration significantly improved handgrip strength and reduced muscle activity, indicating greater efficiency in muscle contraction.

Article Synopsis
- Osteoarthritis of the knee (kOA) is a chronic condition that affects cartilage in the knee, and whole body vibration (WBV) may enhance strength training in elderly individuals.
- A study involving 15 elderly women with kOA explored the effects of combining WBV with squat training versus traditional squat training alone over 12 weeks.
- Results showed that the WBV group experienced greater improvements in quadriceps muscle strength and levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), suggesting that WBV helps boost muscle performance through neuromuscular adaptations.
