Summary

This study evaluates whether an increase in the ipsilateral knee flexor muscle strength transfers to the contralateral knee extensors which are not exposed to vibration, when unilateral-isolated whole body vibration (WBV) is applied to the lower extremity. In the half of volunteers the right leg were exposed vibration, while in the other half the right leg were exposed sham vibration. Muscle strength were measured with the Cybex® (Massachusetts, USA) extremity-testing system.
