Many top athletes, however, train on the edge of their physical limits. And all too often, top athletes and their coaches, are confronted with strength or speed barriers. Many sport careers are also disrupted because of chronic overtraining or injuries.
The benefits of using NEMES-BOSCO SYSTEM in sports training is unique. Athletes and coaches of different sports such as soccer, volleyball, basketball, track and field, boxing, tennis, skiing, baseball and more will find new ways to improve skills such as speed, power, strength, flexibility etc.
Vibration training can be applied simultanously with other training methods in every stage of the preparation. Vibration training can be used in addition to the regular power training, or as a safe alternative to power training. It can also be used as a warming-up, to prepare for power training or in combination with technique training and/or speed-training.
 A problem area in top-sport is training the explosive power, such as jumping power or throwing-power. Use is often made of 'brutal' training intensities and high 'peak' loads. This could be with heavy power loads of hundreds of kilos of weights, plyometric loads or drop-jumps. These unfortunately often result in injuries. Some examples are foot injuries, "Achilles" tendon injuries, knee injuries (jumpers knee) or back complaints. Vibration training is the key solution in these conditions.
Another issue is that the muscles become stronger after many years of training, but not the passive movement apparatus, like tendons, ligaments, joints and bones. Certainly for athletes who have reached the limits of their physical limits, it is extremely difficult to find effective and safe training methods. Vibration training allows the muscles to work very hard without overloading on the ligaments, tendons, joints and vertebra. This is not only to the benefit of top athletes, but also for young athletes, who are not able to take on strength training because of growing problems e.g. Osgood-Schlatter or M. Scheuermann, both disorders in bone growth that often appear in the teen years.
VIBRATION TRAINING CAN BE USED IN A NUMBER OF WAYS
-
Supplementary to the normal power training
-
An alternative for power training, when there is injury or rehabilitation (for example: instead of power training, replace with vibration training)
-
In preparation for power training (for example: first vibration training, and afterwards power training)
- In preparation for other types of training, such as technique training or speed training
- In preparation for competitions, as a warming-up; during track and field events, we often see the sprinters jumping or hopping up and down before they take up their positions in the starting blocks
- Cooling-down after training and contests, because of the positive effect on the blood circulation and the hormones, which helps the athlete to recover faster

Power training for top athletes has made great advancement, and is still a source of dynamic development in top sport. The increase in power/force is very much dependent on the intensity (=the weight and the velocity of the load), and the volume, (=the total amount of the load or the duration of the load). In order to make power training more effective and efficient, efforts are often made to find ways of increasing the intensity. That usually results in increasing the load, which is maybe optimal for adapting the muscle tissue, but this is often accompanied by problems with the passive movement apparatus, for example, in the form of knee complaints or problems in the lower part of the back.
