Overview

The novelty of this study is to identify the mechanism of nervous system by applying resistance training intervention in healthy individuals.

Description

Resistance training is a form of exercise that is popular particularly for its role in improving athletic performance by increasing muscular strength, power and speed, hypertrophy, local muscular endurance, motor performance, balance and coordination. The objective of the study is to find out the effects of resistance training on Central and Peripheral Nervous System in healthy individuals. A total of 100 participants will be included in the study including both male and female. The study will be divided into two main groups. Experimental group will perform 8-12 Reps with 1.5 sec concentric and 1.5 sec eccentric contraction of bench press with 90 sec of rest between sets with 2 sets per week for 2 months.

1RM of control group will be calculated through the same method and the training protocol for the Control group consisted of 5 attempts to lift as much weight as possible one time for that training visit with 90 seconds of rest between attempts. The load was progressively increased each attempt to try to reach or exceed their previous 1RM.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Body Mass Index should be 18.5-24.9 kg/m2.
  • Participants were untrained and had not engaged in resistance exercise within 6 months prior to beginning the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants with any kind of Gastrointestinal Tract disturbance will be excluded from the study.
  • Participants with any kind of Musculoskeletal injury will be excluded from the study.
  • Participant with any kind of Neurological disturbance will be excluded from the study.
  • Participants who use tobacco products within the previous 6 months.
  • Participants who take any type of medication within the previous 6 months.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
