Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a serious rheumatic autoimmune disease affecting organ structure and functional activity. The aim of the Brazilian researchers, authors of the present report, was to evaluate the effect of 12-week vibration therapy in the form of whole-body vibration exercise (WBVE) on fatigue, functional performance and quality of life in women with […]
In saving from drowning, a quick response of the rescuer is the key. The rescuer’s physical condition during rescue is tested by extremely demanding metabolic needs. A single rescue operation causes a large increase in blood lactate concentration. Water rescuers are often forced to react many times within 1 day, therefore effective regeneration after each […]
Prolonged exercise can damage muscles, resulting in pain, swelling and reduced strength. It has been previously shown that whole-body vibration therapy, applied in a standing position on a vibration platform, improves muscle regeneration. In this study, scientists from the University of Physical Education in Kraków (Poland) decided to test the effect of a milder form […]
The aim of presented research of Polish scientists from the University of Physical Education in Krakow and the Vitberg Research and Development Department was to analyze the impact of vibration massage on the process of muscle regeneration [reflected by the maximum force of isometric muscle contractions (Fmax)] after short-term intense physical exercise compared to the […]
