Abstract:This study's objective was to investigate the extent to which two different levels of low‐intensity vibration training (0.6 g or 1.0 g) affected musculoskeletal structure and function after a volumetric muscle loss (VML) injury in male C57BL/6J mice. All mice received a unilateral VML injury to the posterior plantar flexors. Mice were randomized into a control group (no vibration; VML‐noTX), or one of two experimental groups. The two experimental groups received vibration training for 15‐min/day, 5‐days/week f… Show more
