Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Obesity has become a significant public health concern globally, particularly among university students, where lifestyle changes contribute to increased body weight and fat accumulation. The World Health Organization defines obesity as a condition characterized by excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health, with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher being a common threshold for classification. In Saudi Arabia, the prevalence of obesity among young adults is alarming, necessitating effective interventions to combat this issue.

Study Groups

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

Study group

The study group (no = 16) underwent whole-body vibration (WBV) training using the PowerPlate device. Sessions will be conducted three times per week for 6 weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Whole body vibration device

Intervention Type DEVICE

Whole-body vibration (WBV) training using the Power Plate Pro 7HC (Northbrook, USA). The vibration frequency was set between 30-40 Hz, with an amplitude of 2-4 mm.

Control group

The sham WBV group (no=16) will stand on the same device with the vibtation shut off. Sessions will be conducted three times per week for 6 weeks.

Group Type SHAM_COMPARATOR

Sham Whole body vibration

Intervention Type OTHER

A sham Whole body vibration will be used . participants will stand on the device without actual vibrations.This control condition will be used to isolate the effects of WBV from other potential influences such as standing posture and time spent on the the platform.
