| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was aimed to investigate the effects of an 8-week program of WBV in combination with trunk muscle training on performance in healthy, untrained adults.Twenty university healthy subjects participated in this study. Participants were randomly assigned to a WBV or non-WBV group. The WBV group performed a trunk muscle training program in combination with WBV, and the non-WBV group performed the same muscle training program without WBV for 8 weeks. In the pre- and post-training period, the participants were evaluated using the FMS, Y-test, trunk muscle strength, squat jump, and counter-movement jump. Both groups showed improvement in the Y-test and trunk flexor muscle strength. Additionally, the WBV group had greater improvement than non-WBV group in both Y-test and trunk flexor muscle strength between pre- and post-training. Strength training in combination with WBV more effectively improved dynamic balance and trunk flexor muscle strength than training without WBV.
