Abstract

Background and Aims: Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of mortality in developed and in developing countries. The purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of whole body vibration training and detraining on selected cardiovascular risk factors in inactive middle-aged women.
Materials and Methods: Risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (fasting blood sugar, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and heart rate) were measured before, after 30 sessions of vibration training, and three months after training abstinence in nine inactive middle-aged women.
Results: A significant difference was detected in concentration of fasting blood sugar, total cholesterol, and LDL-C (P≤0.05) between three intervals (before, after 30 sessions of vibration training, and after three months of training abstinence) where concentration decreased after training. In contrast, no significant difference was observed in the concentration of triglyceride, HDL-C, systolic, and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate (p≥0.05) between all measured time units.
Conclusion: In summary, following one month of whole body vibration training, there was a significant decrease of some of the cardiovascular diseases risk factors compared with baseline, but the effect did not remain after three-month of abstinence from training. It seems that whole body vibration training may have the potential to be used as an alternative training for middle-aged women who lack the tendency for attend exercise gyms to reduce some cardiovascular risk factors during performing this kind of training.
