  • All of the abovementioned ergometer systems are based on the principle of positioning the user together with the training medium used on a vibrating plate. All components used to support the exerciser exert vibration energy on the body parts touching the components or the corresponding body segments. This results in whole-body vibrations (GKV or Whole Body Vibration "WBV"), which in some cases exceed the occupationally-medical permissible limit values according to DIN ISO 2631.
