1 GFM Platform Exercise Manual STEPHEN NEWHART, CSCS*D
2 What is Whole Body Vibration? Body vibration is delivered through a variety of machines, including the most recent inclusion of whole body vibration platforms which people stand on. Traditional platforms provide the body with vertical displacement at an amplitude of roughly 4mm. Current research indicates that traditional low amplitude WBV platforms produce such results as: Increased muscle electrical output (strength factor) Bone density increases (osteoporosis improvements) Stimulation of muscular units (muscle size) Flexibility improvements through greater control of proprioceptors Near equal stimulus as traditional weight lifting (in older populations) Studies compared body weight exercises on vibration vs. land-based resistance training Studies performed over year time span.
3 What is Gravity Force Multiplication (GFM)? Gravity Force Multiplication (GFM) is a higher amplitude force transmission stimulus which uses a higher impact load than traditional whole body vibration platforms previously discussed. GFM is unlike traditional vibration platforms, specifically the amplitude of motion. GFM platforms have a displacement of 12mm + Greater displacement provides a greater stimulus to the body, which results in greater adaptations.
4 Benefits of Higher Displacement Bone benefits Remodeling of bone occurs as the bone experiences bending forces. This is very safe for the body and occurs during jumping activities. (see image) Muscle benefits During rapid motions the muscle fibers activate in an unaccustomed manner and micro tear. Micro tears are reformed and create new lean tissue, which leads to increases in metabolism. Nervous system benefits Rapid vibrations engage the ENTIRE muscle vs. only portions which occurs during traditional resistance training. nervous system = strength.
5 Other Benefits Corrects postural and joint length tension imbalances when proper position is held Set body in correct posture or ideal position Allow platform to apply vibration forces Equal velocity, amount and amplitude of forces placed into limb Limb should be challenged at all joint angles Heart rate increases (Cardiovascular Fitness) Bone density improvements Increased reactivity of limbs which contact platform Muscle mass increases Nervous system output increased (strength increases)
6 Guidelines Rapid motions not necessary Muscles challenged rapidly by vibration Slower motions are sufficient for optimal benefit Ensure all ranges of each motion are reached Hold half a second at each portion of the range Modify the body to achieve optimal posture Hold body in optimal and allow vibration to effect limbs Maintain proper breathing patterns Breathe in on eccentric (stretch) and out on concentric (shorten)
7 Volume and Intensity Recommendations Body weight is recommended for an individuals new to GFM vibration platforms. Measuring time spent in recommended positions is ideal for a beginning prescription. All beginners should start by holding recommended positions for 30 seconds and performing 1-2 sets of each position. Progressions may include Increases in time held in positions Progression from isometric holds to moving through full ranges of motion Increasing the number of sets performed Adding dumbbells, kettlebells, bands or sources of external resistance Resistance training on GFM platforms should final progression
8 Kneeling Upper Body Burner - Entire arm and chest - Upper back complex - Lat muscles - Internal / External Obliques - Maintain stable but loose spine - Stable but loose shoulder blade - Allow vibrations to move upper body
