An interventional study of whole body vibration and plyometric training in Muscle Strength, Postural Balance and Range of Motion, Articular, sponsored by Hasan Kalyoncu University. Completed at 1 site in Turkey. Open to male participants aged 18 Years to 38 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-10-02.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether whole body vibration with plyometric training has effect on physical performance parameters and balance also this study searched for if vibration support additional benefits to normal plyometric training. Methods: 24 elite basketball players divided into two group as 12 players with the mean age of 24 ± 6,96 years (Study Group) and 12 players with the mean age of 22,45 ± 5,22 years (Control Group). Plyometric training were applied to study group on whole body vibration platform for 6 weeks (2 days/week) with routine basketball training, in control group plyometric training were applied on whole body vibration platform with the similar period of time but platform had been closed. All the assessments (physical measurement, vertical and horizontal jump tests, one-repetition maximum (1-RM) half squat strength test, 20 m speed test, T agility test, sit and reach flexibility test, star excursion balance test) were applied before and after 6 weeks plyometric training for both groups.
Exclusion Criteria:
basketball players had done exercises on whole body vibration platform.
Other: whole body vibration · Other: plyometric training
Basketball players had done same plyometric exercises
Other: plyometric training
whole body vibration is a mechanical stimulus characterized by oscillatory movements.Whole body vibration's potential beneficial effects occurs by transmission of mechanical and sinusoidal vibrations to the whole body through the feet.
Plyometric exercises refers to performance of stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) movements that involve a high-intensity eccentric contraction immediately after a rapid and powerful concentric contraction.
