Effects of Whole-Body Vibration Training on Ankle Muscle Activation and Functional Performance in Adults With Obesity With and Without Type 2 Diabetes
This study will examine changes in ankle muscle activity and functional performance following whole-body vibration training in women with obesity, with and without type 2 diabetes. It will also compare the responses to training between these two groups.
Participants will attend supervised training twice a week for eight weeks. During training, they will perform exercises on a platform that produces mechanical vibrations. The exercises will progress gradually and will be adapted to each participant's abilities and tolerance. Each session will include warm-up and cool-down exercises.
Before and after the training program, researchers will assess muscle activity during normal walking, heel-to-toe walking, and standing with one foot directly in front of the other. Small sensors placed on the skin will record activity from three muscles around each ankle. Walking and functional performance will also be assessed.
The study aims to help researchers understand whether women with obesity with and without type 2 diabetes show different changes in muscle activity and functional performance after the same training program.
