Galileo Research Facts No. 173: Can Galileo Training increase Oxygen uptake compared to traditional exercises?

This study investigated the effects of squats and heel raises with extra loads on muscle function and cross-section with and without Galileo Training at 40Hz (20-40Hz, pos. 3-4, loads 80% 1RM (80kg), 3×8 squats (4 sec.), 3×12 heel raises, 6 weeks, 16 Sessions). The Galileo group showed with 5-12% lower additional training mass a significantly higher oxygen uptake (+15%) and therefore a higher training efficiency…

Galileo Research Facts No. 87: Can 18 minutes Galileo Training per week reduce body fat?

During the 2nd Berlin Bedrest Study (BBR2) the participants had to stay in bed for 55 days. One control group did no training at all, the second one resistance exercises (RE) and the Galileo group did resistance training + vibration (24Hz, 6×1 min. to exhaustion, 3/week). While both control groups increased local body fat only the Galileo group was able to reduce local body fat by up to 12% with just 18 minutes Training per week…
