Brief Summary

Obesity has become a major global public health issue, defined by an excessive accumulation of body fat that presents substantial health risks. Over 650 million adults worldwide suffer from obesity, which is defined as having a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher. Obesity is becoming more common in both developed and developing countries. Sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy eating habits that include processed foods and sugars, and genetic factors are the main causes of the rising prevalence of obesity. Obesity is a multifactorial condition that affects physical appearance and self-esteem, while also having significant implications for long-term health, leading to decreased life expectancy and lower quality of life.

• Primary Study Purpose: OTHER
• Blinding Strategy: SINGLE

Study Groups

Study Group (Whole body vibration group)

The study group (no = 13) underwent single session of whole-body vibration (WBV) of using the PowerPlate device.

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 at 30 Hz, with an amplitude of 2 mm.

Control group (Sham whole body vibration group)

The sham WBV group (no=13) will stand on the same device with the vibtation shut off for single session.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

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.
