Galileo Research Facts No. 86: Can Galileo Training + vascular occlusion improve endurance muscles & metabolism?

Posted by
This study documented the short-term effects (3h post exercise) of Galileo Training + vascular occlusion on endurance muscles in trained endurance runners (30Hz, 90° dynamic squat, +70% 1RM add. load, 2*60s+180s occlusion). The control group received identical training without Vibration and occlusion. The Galileo group showed significantly higher improvements of endurance muscle mRMA and PGC-1α gene expression...

Galileo Research Facts No. 24: Is the increase in blood flow highest during active Galileo Training?

Posted by
This study reports for Galileo Training the influence of frequency and amplitude on blood flow, and the short-term changes over time before, during and after Galileo Training (1 min., 5-30Hz, position 2.5 and 4.5, static squatting). The results show that with increasing frequency and amplitude Galileo Training can increase blood-flow by up to 420% and that it increases by an additional 50% directly after the active training...

Galileo Research Facts No. 11: Can endurance athletes also gain with Galileo Training?

Posted by
This study shows the effect of 16 Galileo Sessions (8 weeks, 30Hz, start 70% 1RM, plus Occlusion) for cyclists and Triathletes compared to identical resistance training. The Galileo Group increased muscle mass at the thigh by 3%, type 1 fiber cross-section by 25%, type 2 fiber cross-section by 23%, capillarization by 8% with no significant effect in the resistance training control group...
