What is Whole Body Vibration Training
- 13 -
3. Origin－Vibration Training
Humans experience the effects of externally applied forces constantly
when exercising. When our feet contact ground during locomotion or as
we strike objects with sport implements and daily activities, for example
skiing, surfing, riding, dancing, public transportations, boat, aircraft and
many more. These contacts create vibrations within the tissues of the
limbs, which gradually decline as soft tissues dampen these oscillations,
so that calls “vibration stimulus”. The body relies on a number of factors
to achieve this reduction in vibrations, primarily soft tissue structures, but
also bone, synovial fluids, specific joint positions, and muscle activity.
Principle－Vibration Theory
Whole Body Vibration training(WBV) is, that subject stands on a
platform or plate that produces sinusoidal oscillations either in a vertical
up and down motion, or that rotates about a center fulcrum producing up
and down vertical motion on alternating sides of the fulcrum, applied to
either muscle tendons, or skeletal muscle indirectly to increases muscle
activity and subsequently enhances muscle performance in both acute and
chronic conditions for training purpose and sports performance
enhancement. Through WBV to induce Tonic Vibration Reflex(TVR),
which is a sustained contraction of a muscle subjected to vibration caused
by vibratory activation of muscle spindles-muscle receptors sensitive to
stretch, has significant improvements on strength and explosive power.
And today, vibration has been proven with significant positive effects on
neuromuscular, bone density, metabolism and many more by sports
scientists and academic.
Application of Vibration Training
Since the early 1960s, vibration stimulation has been used in medical
rehabilitation to stimulate and induce the activation of the muscle
proprioceptors. The contractions caused by this stimulation help restore
normal muscle function. In the field of rehabilitation vibration is being
used on patients to help relieve muscle stress, repair and restore range of

motion, osteoporosis prevention, improve blood circulation, metabolism
and improve the autonomic nervous system.
Initially, the concept behind vibration training had its roots in East
Germany with a technique called Rhythmic Neuromuscular Stimulation
(RNS). This science was later embraced and developed by Russian
scientists to combat the growing issue of osteoporosis.
Since osteoporosis and muscular atrophy were both noted in Russia’s
cosmonauts the Russian space agency used vibration training to combat
the effects of the zero gravity environment of space. (Because there is no
gravitational force in space, muscles and bones are not loaded leading to
bone loss and muscle atrophy.) The results of vibration training on the
cosmonauts were very significant including improved muscular strength,
increased bone density and preventing osteoporosis.
In 1970s Russia used vibration training on elite athletes to improve
muscle strength and endurance. The performance gains on these athletes
had been significant through this new mode of training and hence the
beginning of vibration training in sports. Since than there have been
continued studies on the effects of vibration training.(Please refer to the
documents and experiment data in the addendum).

4. About Zen Pro®
It has been documented for thousands of years in Chinese culture that
stimulating specific parts of the body affects well being. Acupuncture,
focused breathing, massage and meditation are used to alleviate stress
responses that adversely impact all the bodies systems. Through Zen Pro®,
people can release stress, calming the spirit and balancing the body, heart
and mind.
A long-term academic study found that meditation exercises combined
with the benefits of vibration training and fitness could substantially
improve the quality of life by relieving symptoms caused by high stress
environments, overwork and lack of rest.
The Whole Body Vibration Zen Pro®series was developed based on
Static State Meditation combined with the benefits of fitness and
vibration technology. It can train full-body muscle groups and enhance
the function of mental and physical efficiency at the same time. The Zen
Pro®can also be used as an auxiliary piece of equipment for warm-up and
cool down before and after exercise. With the proper training program, it
can enhance the flexibility of the body, hand strength, control, flexibility
and the sense of balance, releasing the deep healthy energy of the human
body creating wellness and a strong, healthy mind.
