Effects of Lower Limb Concentric Versus Eccentric Dynamic Resistance Training on Agility and Speed in Badminton Players
A study testing Concentric Lower Limb Training Program and Eccentric Lower Limb Training Program in people with Sports Physical Therapy, run by Riphah International University at 1 site in Pakistan.
Trial summary
With an average heart rate (HR) of more than 90% of the player's maximal HR, football is extremely taxing. The sporadic movements that occur throughout a game place a strain on the anaerobic and aerobic systems, accounting for roughly 30% of the latter's workload and 60% of the former.

About this study
With an average heart rate (HR) of more than 90% of the player's maximal HR, football is extremely taxing. The sporadic movements that occur throughout a game place a strain on the anaerobic and aerobic systems, accounting for roughly 30% of the latter's workload and 60% of the former. The capacity to shift directions and accelerate or decelerate on the court in order to make accurate shots and perform better is what determines footwork performance. Plyometric Training is a favored training technique for raising COD performance since it has a reputation for being a simple, quick, and efficient method of training. The core practice of combining resistance conditioning exercises with a dynamic warm-up can improve power output in badminton and create a post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) impact. According to random sampling and sample size calculated by open epi tool, a total of 68 badminton players will be obtained from the badminton club of a Crescent sports club and Al-Fatah Sports Complex, Faisalabad. They will be divided into group A and group B according to the form of random sampling. Baseline markers for agility and speed will be taken before the start of the training and after the completion of training program. Group A will be engaged in a specially designed 30-minute concentric lower limb training program (squats, lunges and leg extensions) conducted by the researchers, before a 90-minute ordinary badminton training session conducted by the coach, 2 days per week for 8 weeks. Group B will be engaged in a specially designed 30-minute eccentric lower limb training program (wall sit, sitting straddle single leg and full squat) conducted by the researchers, before a 90-minute ordinary badminton training session conducted by the same coach, 2 days per week for 8 weeks.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Group A | Experimental | 32 participants will be in experimental group A and will perform concentric lower limb training program including squats, lunges and leg extension exercises. Receives: Other: Concentric Lower Limb Training Program |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Lateral Change of Direction Test
To perform the test, the athlete warms up for 10 minutes The assistant places three cones 5 metres apart on a straight line The athlete stands by the middle cone (B), facing the assistant The assistant gives the command "GO" and points in a starting direction, right or left, and starts the stopwatch The athlete moves to and touches the first cone, returns past the middle cone to the far cone and touches it and then returns to and touches the middle cone The assistant stops the stopwatch when the athlete touches the middle cone and records the time The test is conducted four times - two in each starting direction (left \& right) The fastest time in each direction is used for accessing the athlete's performance
Measured: 8 weeks
60 Metre Speed Test
This test requires the athlete to sprint as fast as possible over 60 metres
The athlete warms up for 10 minutes The assistant marks out a 60-metre straight section on the track with cones The assistant gives the command "GO" and starts the stopwatch The athlete sprints as fast as possible over the 60 metres The assistant stops the stopwatch as the athlete's torso crosses the finishing line and records the time The test is conducted three times The assistant uses the fastest recorded time to assess the athlete's performance
Measured: 8 weeks

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
With an average heart rate (HR) of more than 90% of the player's maximal HR, football is extremely taxing. The sporadic movements that occur throughout a game place a strain on the anaerobic and aerobic systems, accounting for roughly 30% of the latter's workload and 60% of the former. The capacity to shift directions and accelerate or decelerate on the court in order to make accurate shots and perform better is what determines footwork performance. Plyometric Training is a favored training technique for raising COD performance since it has a reputation for being a simple, quick, and efficient method of training. The core practice of combining resistance conditioning exercises with a dynamic warm-up can improve power output in badminton and create a post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) impact.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Concentric Lower Limb Training Program and Eccentric Lower Limb Training Program 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 5 inclusion and 3 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 19 Jul 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?
Lateral Change of Direction Test (time frame: 8 weeks). The study lists 2 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 NCT06509607, which also lists 10 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 19 Jul 2024.
