Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Whole body vibration training

Whole body vibration training (timed stand on vibration platform) 3 20-minute sessions per week for 6 months

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Whole body vibration training

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Each whole body vibration session will consist of a 20 min timed stand on the vibration platform where participants will stand with their knees in a slightly flexed position (120°) while the plate oscillates. The vibration frequency will be set at ranges between 20-40Hz and the amplitude set at 2mm displacement.

Control group

No significant changes to diet, exercise and lifestyle.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Control group

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Participants in this group will be asked to not make any significant changes to their lifestyle behaviors, such as diet and exercise, for the duration of the study.
