The use of whole body vibration (WBV) as a method of training for enhancing performance in sport has recently been of growing interest, despite the mechanisms of adaptations to WBV not being sufficiently recognized. WBV training is based on an external drive that stimulates the muscle and nervous system, through direct or indirect devices [1]. Direct application of vibration was analysed mostly in the earliest sports studies, but since it has been shown that WBV training protocols could also be effective in enhancing performance, the use of WBV platforms has increased [2]. The WBV platform has different mechanisms of stimulation; it can vibrate vertically or horizontally or use pivot/wobble vibrations [3]. Vibration refers to an oscillatory displacement with an alternating change in velocity and direction. The platform motors generate oscillatory displacements which are transmitted to the human body, enhancing the tonic vibration reflex, mediated by monosynaptic and polysynaptic pathways [4] and stimulating reflex involuntary muscle contractions [5]. The chronic effect of training is probably gained by neuromuscular and neural adaptations [4]. A huge variety of stimuli adjustments are described – the vibration frequencies and accelerations, exposure times and training duration, types of exercise, work and total loading are most important [6, 7]. Generally, the higher the frequencies and amplitudes that are induced, the greater is the muscle activity during a regular isometric squat during WBV [8].
