The aim of this study was to examine the magnitude and the origin of neuromuscular fatigue
induced by half-squat static whole-body vibration (WBV) exercise, and to compare it to a non-
WBV condition. Nine healthy volunteers completed two fatiguing protocols (WBV and non-
WBV, randomly presented) consisting of five 1-min bouts of static half-squat exercise with a
load corresponding to 50% of their individual body mass. Neuromuscular fatigue of knee
and ankle muscles was investigated before and immediately after each fatiguing protocol …
