About this study

Official title: Tele-Exercise Programs Improves Physical Performance for Male Elite Fencers

Tele-exercise has been used to enhance athletic performance among athletes. Physical performance indicators such as lunge distance, speed, reaction time, coordination, and balance control during stationary jumps can be used to measure the effectiveness of tele-exercise programs for fencing athletes.

The objective of this study was to examine the effectiveness of tele-exercise programs on lunge distance, speed, reaction time, coordination, and balance control during stationary jumps among male elite fencers.

Being tested
Tele-exercise program, Conventional Fencing Exercise

What participants receive

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

  • Tele-exercise programOther

    The tele-exercise program focused on lunge movement with additional strengthening abdominal and lumbopelvic muscle training while maintaining neuromuscular control. The difficulty of training was adjusted every week according to the five-step mastery program

  • Conventional Fencing ExerciseOther

    The conventional exercise was based on 'displacement', a basic footwork training in fencing. The Displacement is also basic footwork to approach the opponent. The Displacement consisted of seven movements including 'Marche', 'Retraite \& Rompre', 'Passe avant', 'Passe arrière', 'Bond en avant', 'Bond en arrière', and 'Balestra'.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lunge speed

    Speed to perform a single lunge is one of the essential physical ability for fencing athletes.

    Measured: changes from baseline after intervention at 4 weeks

  2. Lunge distance

    Distance travelled to perform a single lunge is one of the essential physical ability for fencing athletes.

    Measured: changes from baseline after intervention at 4 weeks

  3. Reaction time

    Reaction time is one of the essential physical ability for fencing athletes that can be measured by the time required to move when subject hear a signal

    Measured: changes from baseline after intervention at 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Accurate repeatability of stationary hops

    The distances between repeated hops can evaluate coordination and balance control

    Measured: changes from baseline after intervention at 4 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tele-exercise program and Conventional Fencing Exercise in people with Sports Physical Therapy and Athletic Performance, run by Sahmyook University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 24 Jul 2023. 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 South Korea. 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?

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?

Lunge speed (time frame: changes from baseline after intervention at 4 weeks). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Jul 2023.
