What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
free weight training and machine trainingOther
20 participants will be in control group who will only perform free weight and machine training
Aerobic ExercisesOther
20 participants will be in experimental group giving them aerobic exercise training protocol along with free weight and machine training
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Group A | Experimental | 20 participants will be in control group, they will only perform free weight training and machine training and will not perform aerobic exercises Receives: Other: free weight training and machine training |
| Group B | Experimental | 20 participants will be in experimental group, they will perform aerobic exercises along with free weight training and machine training Receives: Other: Aerobic Exercises |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
1 Repetition Maximum
A 1 Repetition Maximum (1 RM) test is a commonly used method in the fitness and strength training realm to assess an individual's maximum strength for a specific exercise. (18) The test involves determining the maximum amount of weight a person can lift for a single repetition of a given exercise.
Measured: 8 weeks
Yo-Yo test
The 20-meter multistage shuttle test, also known as the "Beep Test" or "Yo-Yo Test," is a commonly used aerobic fitness test. (20)The test involves continuous running between two lines 20 meters apart in response to audio signals. . If a participant fails to reach the line before the beep, they are given a warning. After a second warning, the test is concluded, and the level reached is recorded.
Measured: 8 weeks
Muscle Mass
Measuring muscle size using an inches tape, also known as a tailor's tape or a body tape measure, is a simple and effective way to track changes in muscle size and monitor your fitness progress
Measured: 8 weeks

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing free weight training and machine training and Aerobic Exercises in people with Sports Physical Therapy, run by Riphah International University at 1 site in Pakistan.
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 8 inclusion and 11 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 28 Jun 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 Pakistan. 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?
1 Repetition Maximum (time frame: 8 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06479564, which also lists 8 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.
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 28 Jun 2024.
