Brief Summary

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether whole body vibration with plyometric training has effect on physical performance parameters and balance also this study searched for if vibration support additional benefits to normal plyometric training. Methods: 24 elite basketball players divided into two group as 12 players with the mean age of 24 ± 6,96 years (Study Group) and 12 players with the mean age of 22,45 ± 5,22 years (Control Group). Plyometric training were applied to study group on whole body vibration platform for 6 weeks (2 days/week) with routine basketball training, in control group plyometric training were applied on whole body vibration platform with the similar period of time but platform had been closed. All the assessments (physical measurement, vertical and horizontal jump tests, one-repetition maximum (1-RM) half squat strength test, 20 m speed test, T agility test, sit and reach flexibility test, star excursion balance test) were applied before and after 6 weeks plyometric training for both groups.
