Entrenamiento vibratorio. Base fisiológica y efectos funcionales

The use of vibrating platforms as a training met-hod is widely used in sport training. The. vibration stimulates the neurological structures of the body, therefore, both muscle receptors and cortical and medulla structures are activated. The vibration stimulus is known to induce force and power gains, as well as cardiorespiratory adaptations. Endocrine adaptations also seem to occur after a vibration training period, but the results are contradictory. Knowing the physiological effects of that unusual but'effective stimulus is of interest for designing successful vibration training-based programs. Frequency, amplitude, application time, body position, etc, are important variables to take into account in order to achieve optimal results.
