Abstract

Background: The intensity of the vibration load refers to frequency and amplitude. Objectives: The present study aimed at reviewing the effects of high and low intensity whole body vibration training on inflammatory markers. Methods: Overall, 30 healthy male patients were divided to three groups, including control (N = 8), high intensity (N = 11), and low intensity (N = 11) groups. Training included consecutive weeks, three times each week with low intensity (amplitudes of 2 mm), high intensity (amplitudes of 4 mm), and progressive frequencies. Blood samples were analyzed for concentrations of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and fibrinogen before and after completion of training. Paired sample t-test and One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) were used to analyze the research findings (P ≤ 0.05). Results: Whole body vibration training with low and high intensities had no significant effects on hsCRP and fibrinogen levels (P ≥ 0.05). Conclusions: It appears that six weeks of low and high intensity vibration training has the same effects on CRP and fibrinogen.
