About this study

This study evaluate whether resistance training variables modulate the fatigability (power-duration relationship) and physical performance in adults and older adults

Read the detailed description

The resistance training variables manipulation is utilized for maximize the results of resistance training. However it is unclear whether the resistance training variables manipulation modulates the fatigability (i.e. power-duration relationship) and whether this explains the improvement on physical performance (i.e. gait speed, sit-to-stand and timed up and go tests).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Resistance training, LLOther

    In LL, the postmenopausal women will be submitted to 12 weeks of Resistance training with moderate volume (i.e. three sets per exercise) and low load (i.e. 30% of one repetition maximum)

  • Resistance training, HLOther

    In HL, the postmenopausal women will be submitted to 12 weeks of Resistance training with moderate volume (i.e. three sets per exercise) and high load (i.e. 80% of one repetition maximum)

  • Resistance training, HVHLOther

    In HVHL, the postmenopausal women will be submitted to 12 weeks of Resistance training with high volume (i.e. six sets per exercise) and hig load (i.e. 80% of one maximum repetition)

  • Control group, CGOther

    The CG groups do not will performed the exercise.

What is being measured

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

  1. Fatigability

    The fatigability will be evaluate by 60 maximum voluntary isometric contractions (3 s contraction, 2 s rest) in knee extensors at 70 degree.

    Measured: Changes in fatigability measure (e.g. baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Physical Performance

    The physical performance will be evaluate by gait speed tests (e.g. 10m walking at usual and fast pace, 400m walk at usual and fast pace).

    Measured: Changes in physical performance measure (e.g. baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention)

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Aug 2018. 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 Brazil. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Fabio L Orsatti, PhD (+55343700-6634, fabiorsatti@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Fatigability (time frame: Changes in fatigability measure (e.g. baseline and after 12 weeks of intervention)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03619070, which also lists 24 linked publications.

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.
