About this study

According to the World Health Organization, physical activity is defined as any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles that requires energy expenditure. Positive effects of leading a physically active life and exercise have been shown in many areas ranging from diabetes to cardiovascular diseases, cancer to mortality, pain to autoimmunity .

Read the detailed description

Despite the many proven benefits of regular aerobic exercise, physical inactivity remains an important public health problem. In young adults, the perception that exercise is not fun and lack of time for exercise have led to a decrease in physical activity participation . However, studies in the literature have reported that after first creating awareness in individuals about the effects of physical activity on health, creating the necessary time for exercises provides sufficient motivation for individuals to start and continue a more active life.

What participants receive

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

  • Exercise awareness trainingOther

    Group exercise training will consist of aerobic exercises including warm-up and cool-down exercises accompanied by music, and trunk strengthening training consisting of core exercises.

  • physical activity awareness trainingOther

    In the physical activity awareness training, the benefits of exercises on systemic, psychological effects and general body health will be explained and they will be informed about different exercise practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Jump

    The jump assesses explosive force through a standing long jump. Participants start from a designated point and jump forward without touching the line, measuring the distance in centimeters from the front of the jumping line to the point where the body's last contact occurred. It's crucial not to lift the feet before jumping, and at least two attempts are made to achieve the best distance.

    Measured: 10 weeks

  2. Grip Strength Assessment

    Using a JAMAR hand dynamometer, grip strength for both dominant and non-dominant hands is measured during isometric contractions. Participants sit with shoulder adduction, elbow at 90° flexion, and forearm and wrist in a neutral position, gripping and squeezing the dynamometer with maximum force. The test is repeated three times, recording the highest reading in kilograms of force.

    Measured: 10 weeks

  3. Plank Test

    Assesses the control, strength, and endurance of stabilizing core and back muscles. It's a vital exercise for training the endurance of rectus abdominis and external oblique abdominis muscles. The test shows excellent reliability in evaluating core strength and endurance

    Measured: 10 weeks

  4. Modified Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test

    This test identifies deficits in functional performance of the upper extremity in closed kinetic chain positions. It involves a person assuming a push-up position and rapidly touching one hand's dorsal side to the other hand's dorsum within 15 seconds, aiming to maintain parallel alignment with the ground. The evaluator counts the correct hand touches, and the average of three maximal attempts determines the score.

    Measured: 10 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sit-Up Test

    Measures abdominal muscle endurance by performing as many sit-ups as possible within 60 seconds. Participants lie on their backs, knees slightly bent, and hands placed parallel to the ground with palms facing downwards. They aim to touch their knees with their elbows while lifting their upper body without support from the hands

    Measured: 10 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Exercise awareness training and physical activity awareness training in people with Healthy, run by Istanbul Medipol University Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 15 Oct 2024. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Jump (time frame: 10 weeks). The study lists 4 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 15 Oct 2024.
