Clinical Trial: Effects of Adding End-Range Isometric Holds to Isotonic Knee Extensor Training on Isokinetic Performance in Sedentary Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial

U.S., June 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07667543) titled 'Effects of Adding End-Range Isometric Holds to Isotonic Knee Extensor Training on Isokinetic Performance in Sedentary Adults: A Randomized Controlled Trial' on June 19.

Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding a short muscle hold (isometric contraction) to a standard leg-strengthening exercise improves knee muscle strength more than the standard exercise alone, in healthy adults who do not exercise regularly. The main question it aims to answer is:

Does adding a 5-second hold at the end of each leg-extension exercise lead to greater gains in front-thigh muscle (quadriceps) strength than leg-extension exe...
