In young athletes, vibrational-proprioceptive training was linked to a significant twofold increase in muscle IGF-1 Ec mRNA (the MGF isoform).
In plain wordsIn young athletes, vibration training was linked to higher levels of the body's own IGF-1 Ec (MGF) in muscle.

VIB induced a significant twofold increase (P<0·05) of the skeletal muscle isoform insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) Ec mRNA.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
In 29 ISO-K- or VIB-trained young athletes we evaluated: force, muscle fiber morphometry, and gene expression of muscle atrophy/hypertrophy cell signaling.
This result measures the body's own MGF / PEG-MGF. Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
