Whole body vibration training as a new method of neuromuscular training and a strong mechanical stimulation in neural system, bone tissue and muscles has been considered. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of whole body vibration training on the explosive power and speed of male non-athlete students. For this purpose twenty of university of Tarbiat Moalem students (age: 21/5 ± 1/4 y, Weight: 71/5 ± 5/5 kg, Height: 174 ± 5/5 cm, BMI: 23/67 ± 1/30) were recruited and randomly divided to an experimental (EG) and control group (CG). The EG were treated for four weeks, three session in week with 5 sets of 1 minute in squat of 110◦ body position, for a total volume of five minutes per day. Explosive power and speed of subjects were tested at the beginning and the end of treatment. The data were analyzed using Paired-t test statistical method. The results showed remarkable and statistically significant enhancement in the EG with 7.8% increase in explosive power (P≤0/002), and there was a significant difference in EG speed (5m: P≤ 0.001, 10m: P≤0.042 and 20m: P≤0.001) showed. At all we can conclude that whole body vibration probably can enhance explosive power and speed. In hence, it can be a new method of training that athlete and couch use it.
