The scientific literature about WBV is well documented and presents different vibration protocols, different measurements and, as a consequence - different results. Objectives: To explore the effect of a strengthening program with WBV on several muscular strength variables among physical education students in comparison to a con-trol passive group of students. Methods: Thirty-eight healthy male physical education students were randomly allocated into Vibration Group (VG, n=13) - who underwent strengthen-ing program with WBV and external load, and Control Group (CG, n=25), that received no treatment. The study included pre-test assessments, 4-week intervention phase and post-test assessments. During the intervention phase VG performed three training sessions per week that included six sets of 30 sec squats with external loads on a WBV platform. Assess-ments included maximal muscle strength, power, reactive strength and endurance. Results: Significant improvements were shown in all components among the VG from pre to post-tests (p&lt;0.001), with no significant change among the CG. Conclusions: A 4-week strengthening program with WBV and medium external load improves different components of strength among healthy physical education students.</p> ER -
