Check out the studies below showing the effects of whole body vibration when measured in controlled experiments:

———-
Study Investigate and compare the effects of 24 weeks of Whole Body Vibration Exercise (WBVE) and Fitness Training on body compostion and muscle strength
Results a significant strength gain both exercise groups compared with a control group. WBVE group increased their strength by 7-25%?Roelents et al (2004b)

Study: Investigate and compare the effects of 24 weeks of WBVE and Fitness Training on knee extension strength, speed of movement and countermovement jump performance
Results: ?static and dynamic knee extensor strength increased significantly as did speed of movement and jump height for both groups. Changes were observable after 12 weeks of training.?Roelents et al (2004a)

Study: Investigate the effects of 2 weeks of WBVE
Results: Increase in muscle strength among the WBV group of 28%. Salvarani et al (2003)
