Vibrogym - Scientific Concept

Vibrations do wonders for cheetahs

Researchers have discovered that when a cheetah purrs, the vibrations help stimulate blood circulation, warm the muscles and support the body's recovery. Having an internal vibration system helps the cheetah stimulate healing and bone growth while at rest.

Weight training usually builds muscle due to the force exerted by gravity on the increased mass. Since there’s no gravity in space, scientists had to find an alternative to prevent loss of muscle – Vibration based training!

Whole Body Vibrations increase the acceleration factor acting on your body, increasing the force exerted and building muscle strength without the need for additional weights. Contact with a Vibrogym induces a Tonic Vibration Reflex (TVR) which recruits up to 95% of your muscle fibres whereas in conventional resistance training only 40-50% of your muscle fibres are recruited. Vibrations also lead to increased blood flow, hormonal releases and the activation of stabilizing muscles.
