Trial summary

A complex training on a dynamic leg-press with visual feed-back will improve coordinative capacity, power, sensorimotor and cognitive aspects more than a classic training on the same leg-press but without visual feed-back. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of a Classic Leg-press Training Compared to a Complex Training on a Dynamic Leg-press With Visual Feed-back. Pilot-study

A complex training on a dynamic leg-press with visual feed-back will improve coordinative capacity, power, sensorimotor and cognitive aspects more than a classic training on the same leg-press but without visual feed-back.

Read the detailed description

The project evaluates two different resistance training programs on a leg press. One group will perform a standard resistance training with the aim of muscle hypertrophia, the other group will perform a complex resistance training combining rate of force development training, power training, speed endurance as well as sensorimotor aspects (i.e. following visual feedback to reproduce given forces or joint angles).

Hypotheses: Participants in the complex training group will change the relation between counter movement jump and squat jump, i.e. they will more improve in the counter movement jump because of improved sensorimotor capacity.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. coordination

    coordination, i.e. sensorimotor capacity measured with (a) the difference between counter-movement jump and squat jump and (b) with a test for dynamic joint-position sense on the dynamic leg press

    Measured: 5 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Power

    power measured on the dynamic leg press and with the squat jumps

    Measured: 5 weeks

  2. Balance

    Balance measured with the Star Excursion Balance Test

    Measured: 5 weeks

  3. Power - Endurance

    Repeated power production during a repeated chair rise test where participants rise from a chair during one minute with two second rest between rises.

    Measured: 5 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing resistance training and complex resistance training in people with Healthy, run by University of Applied Sciences of Western Switzerland at 1 site in Switzerland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Nov 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Switzerland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

coordination (time frame: 5 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Nov 2014.
