An interventional study of WBV and Resistance and resistance & sham WBV in Aging, sponsored by Maíra F Pessoa. Completed at 1 site in Brazil. Open to participants aged 60 Years to 74 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2012-09-10.
Sponsored by Maíra F Pessoa · Not applicable, Interventional, and Supportive care
this study aims evaluate the ergospirometric values after 03 months of training with WBV in elderly health people. The hypothesis is increases of ergospirometric values.
Maíra F Pessoa is the lead sponsor of 6 studies on the registry; none are open to participants now.
Counted across the registry records on this site, refreshed daily.
Exclusion Criteria:
used both interventions
Device: WBV and Resistance
used the vibrating platform and sham for resistance training
Device: WBV & resistance sham
used resistance exercises and sham for vibrating platform
Device: resistance & sham WBV
use of WBV and resistance device during 03 months in elderly health people. The WBV used progressive increases of time and amplitude and the resistance training improves the weight. For Resistance: performed in upper and lower limbs in weight machine Mega II Movement®, used guidelines from American College of Sports Medicine for elderly, with two series of 08 repetitions (75% weight of one RM), considered for RM calculation the maximum voluntary isometric contraction. For WBV: used MY3 platform (Power Plate®, MY3, UK) frequency 35 hertz, tri-axial, amplitude 02 mm in adaptation and initial phases, increasing to 04 mm in phases intermediate and final. The time initial was 10 minutes, progressed to 15 min in second month, concluding with 20 min. Rest time between series remained 01 min.
used only resistance For Resistance: performed in upper and lower limbs in weight machine Mega II Movement®, used guidelines from American College of Sports Medicine for elderly, with two series of 08 repetitions (75% weight of one RM), considered for RM calculation the maximum voluntary isometric contraction. For WBV: used MY3 platform (Power Plate®, MY3, UK)off.
used really the WBV, but sham for resistance training For Resistance: performed similar movments in upper and lower limbs in weight machine Mega II Movement®, without using weights. For WBV: used MY3 platform (Power Plate®, MY3, UK) frequency 35 hertz, tri-axial, amplitude 02 mm in adaptation and initial phases, increasing to 04 mm in phases intermediate and final. The time initial was 10 minutes, progressed to 15 min in second month, concluding with 20 min. Rest time between series remained 01 min.

Time frame: started and finished the protocol after 03 months
