WBV Whole Body Vibration
WHAT
Whole body vibration training has its origins in medicine and science.
It works by a vibrating platform which transmits vibrations to the human body by standing,
sitting or engages different exercises on the platform. The vibrations cause the human body
to respond with a strength reflex which causes the muscle to contract. This is not only
beneficial for the muscles, but your overall well-being.
WBV is the way of the future
The potential benefits of WBV ranges from an immediate improvement in cardiovascular
health, to a variety of measurable outcomes, such as muscle strength and endurance, body
flexibility and ROM, better core conditioning, stability, and faster recovery. Research
about the effective of the Whole Body Vertical Vibration method have been published

Day Back
The「 Whole Body Vibration Theory」was first touched upon the writings of
“Mechanical
Vibration” by Arnold Snow, M.D., in 1912。it was practiced in the former Soviet Union by the
scientist Nazarov who applied different forms of vibration on top athletes, such as rowers and
gymnasts。
Later In the 1970’s, vibration training was particularly used by cosmonauts and ballet dancers to
strengthen their muscle and bone density. The Russian cosmonauts who have carried out WBV
training gained excellent outcomes especially in bone density, muscle power and endocrine. As a
result they were able to stay in space for 420 days, which was 300 days longer than American
astronauts who took more traditional exercise regimens that had to terminate their stay in space in 120
days.
Thereafter, WBV has been further integrated into different fields of athletic training, rehabilitation,
wellness, and prevention.
For different training goal users, frequency and amplitude help to create the
personalized intensity during WBV training. The physical improvements which
can be achieved by single machine is unmatched by any product in the market nowadays.
Lower Body Strength
WBV Benefits
-- strength and power training for athletes
- - ligament knee injuries / repairs
- - acute back problems
- - osteoporosis
- - neuromuscular disorders, MS
- - obesity (via hormonal effects)
- - diabetes (to improve circulation)
- - incontinence (via muscle strengthening)
-- postural stability
 Bosco et al was the first scientist to prove that every person has his own muscle frequency and that human bodies
are designed to absorb vertical vibrations better due to the effects of gravity. He also stated that, many machines
vibrate in three different directions: sideways (x), front and back (y) and up and down (z). The z-axis has the
largest amplitude and is the most defining component in generating and inducing muscle contractions.
 Abercromby at al and Burkhardt stated that vertical movement is the most defining component in generating and
inducing muscle contractions. They also concluded that vibrations transmitted to the brain were significantly less
with non-side alternating systems
 Other findings include:
- Perceptions of fatigue were comparable
- Some subjects experienced leg edema, erythema, and itching from WBVV
- Fatigue associated with intense WBVV attributed to neuromuscular system, not cardiovascular insufficiency
- Cardiovascular risk for this exercise with elderly considered “negligible.”
Good to Knows
Increase Muscle Strength and ability
The vibrations cause one’s body to recruit and contract more muscles as
a stretch reflex. This enhances the muscles strength and ability over time. It is also very safe and effective.
Enhance Flexibility and Range of Motion The high accelerations cause reflex muscle contractions, which cause
one’s muscles to lengthen as they contract and release, enhance more flexible and range of motion.
Relieves Lower Back Pain
The massaging effect helps to release tension and pain associated with lower back
pain. Also, weak muscles around the lower back region are strengthened to assist in supporting one’s posture and back.
Enhances Postural Stability (Balance)
The contracting of one’s core and back muscles results in stronger
muscles to help stabilize and correct one’s posture.
Enhances Sports Performance
The contracting of one’s
muscles increases muscle density making one stronger. It also encourages the
use of one’s fast twitch fibers which push up one’s moving speed. It
also accelerate recovery time by clearing out excess lactic acid by transferring
into one’s lymphatic system.
Assists Weight Loss
When muscles contracts with higher number of
repetitions in a short time leads to an
increase in metabolic rate which burns more calories. Because muscles are contracting 100% and it is more effectivethis means burn more calories and cause the fat to transform into muscle over time.
Improves Circulation
The contracting muscles encourage blood vessels to open and blood to be pumped
around the body at a more rapid rate. This means waste products are removed quicker, damaged tissue is cleared out faster
and restorative nutrients are brought to the muscles tissue more efficiently. This leaves you feeling fitter and healthier.
Increases Hormone Profile
Due to the intensity of vibration training, increase the blood flow and oxygenation
throughout the body. This causes the Human Growth Hormone (HGH) to increase. This is the hormone which regenerates
and repairs tissues. It also lowers the Cortisol levels, which cause stress and increase testosterone levels that improve
muscle strength and tone. It also increases endorphins which elevate your mood and suppress pain.
Prevents Bone Mineral Loss/ Increases Bone Density
The impact of vibrations
have directly on the bone
and muscle causes the bones to become stronger as the bone adjusts its strength to handle the impacts applied on it.
This also stimulates the production of new bone tissue by the increase in hormones such as Human Growth Hormone
and Testosterone.
Improves Quality of Life
All of the above benefits lead to an improvement in the quality of one’s life.
Amateur Exercise and Health Protection
Application
A great solution for people who enjoy an active lifestyle, but do not have the
time for a 45 minute work-out three times a week. 10~15 minutes of WBV
per day produces similar effect as the common exercise in one day.

Medical Rehabilitation
As a passive exercise, it’s conducive to conventional therapies, helps to induce rehabilitation effectiveness. It’s most
favorable for those who are inactive in motion or limited to exercise by themselves, start with a sitting position with feet
on or standing on the plate. WBV helps muscles contracts with higher number of repetitions in a short time, increases the
bone density with muscle strength, enhance the internal secretion (such as HGH, IGF-1 and testosterone), improve the
blood vessel circulation to avoid the muscular dystrophy, osteoporosis or poor digestion.
Design Technology
 The key merit of our WBV is in the patented LINKAGE system design ,
which allows it to execute a true vertical motion in each amplitude setting
(1mm to 30mm), no limit on platform size, max load up to 300kgs,. This
design offers its users with the widest options of frequency 1.5 ~40 Hz
(speed) for variable intensity to match with training modality and goal, be it
rehabilitation, extreme athletic training, body shaping, or healthier lifestyle.
 Completely different from other brander vibration patterns in the market.
With such LINKAGE system, the G force of our WBV is controllable
in each setting (amplitude vs vibration speed) that comply with the
International Safety Organization (ISO 2361) recommended G-Force levels
for human tolerance of vibration. Besides, it eliminates the risk of parallel
forces to the tendons and joints.

Frequency and Amplitude
Frequency and amplitude formulate the intensity of WBV.
AA Every TSUYOKU WBV model has set bundle of amplitude and frequency (speed) that create a G-force less than
2G. (Jogging typical creates a 2-3G force on the body). As body is responsive to the frequencies, it is advisable to select
the frequency which suit for one’s physical condition and/or training goal.
It’s notable Tsuyoku vibration machine has NO excessive G-force to the body while comparing with other vibration
branders, which G-force is apt to arises from ineffective frequency ranges (typically 35-50Hz).
BB The Tsuyoku WBV platform provides a true linear vertical motion of 1-30mm in amplitude. The Vertical
movement is the most effective way to transfer energy into the human body – allowing an accelerated full body workout
with the use of GRAVITY. True linear vertical movement involves more muscle activation, more resistance, and more
range of motion. These 3 improvements combine for a better cardio workout and quicker burning of calories.
Comparing the results with other branders’vibration machine of like-for-like studies has shown that pure vertical
motion increases electromyography (EMG) activation of muscles 8–13% MORE effectively than conventional
WBV.
CC The range of frequency is much wider. With the greater displacement in amplitude, frequency ranges from
1.5Hz–40 Hz. The user can enjoy longer durations on the platform, which equals more results. This also provides a safer,
more natural movement for the user’s joints and eliminates the dizzying“head vibe”effect.

6、Electromyography activity of vastus lateralis muscle during whole body vibrations of different
frequencies
The effect of vibration results calls 'Tonic Vibration Reflex' or 'TVR'. That is a repeated moyotatic reflex or stretch reflex. This means that the
vibrated muscle has to work very hard, while the subject or player using Aerobics Vibrator does nothing other than balance on the working
platform. The effect of per pulsation is like that of the knee jerk reflex. This muscle activity can be measured by use of electromyography
(EMG). For example, in a one repetition maximum effort, the muscles involved are activated 100% voluntarily. However with vibration
training on Aerobics Vibrator the muscles work at 200 to 300% of this IRM activation. This is an ideal way to train, especially when the muscle
does not function properly, such as the weakened muscles in the elderly, over weight, or after injuries.
