The main aim of the present study is to evaluate in a group of adolescents with obesity, hospitalized for a period of integrated metabolic rehabilitation (calorie restriction, aerobic physical activity, psychological counseling, nutritional re-education) lasting 3 weeks, the effects produced from a period of training with vibration stimulation on vibration platforms (Whole Body Vibration Exercise [WBVE]) on the resting energy expenditure (REE), assessed through indirect calorimetry. The results will be compared with those obtained in a control group, subjected to integrated metabolic rehabilitation alone.
Secondary aims of the study are to evaluate the effects of training with WBVE also on cardiovascular and musculoskeletal parameters, evaluated through specific functional tests, comparing them with those obtained in the control group.
