Galileo Research Facts No. 7: Does Galileo Training cause high joint forces?
This study compares forces within the knee and hip during Galileo Training and during normal walking. The measurements were done in-vivo with individuals who had artificial knee and hip implants with built-in force sensors. The graph shows forces per leg in g (as multiples of body weight). It proves that even for intensive training at high frequencies and amplitudes Galileo Training causes smaller internal joint forces than walking.
