  Deviations in Whole-Body Vibration Training Devices: A Narrative Review
  Author(s): Tobias S KaedingTobias S Kaeding
  
  Research regarding whole body vibration training (WBVT) and its use in practice might be hindered by the fact that WBVT devices generate frequencies and/or amplitudes and/or modes of vibration different to preset adjustments. Considering the to date available research results it can be stated, that significant divergences between the preset frequency and the actual applied frequency in WBVT devices used in practice and scientific research must be expected, whereas divergences regarding the mode of vibration are not to be expected. According to the available published literature, no published research results regarding potential divergences of the actually applied amplitude were identified. As a result of divergences of more than 10% it will be difficult to identify the most effective range of frequencies for specific intentions in research. In practice, divergences of more than 10% ca.. View More»
