Eccentric Hamstring Training vs Sprint-Specific Training for Hamstring Performance in Young Athletes
This study tests whether three hamstring training approaches (eccentric, sprint-based, and Romanian deadlift with Nordic hamstring) improve hamstring structure and sprint-related performance in healthy young athletes.
-
How the menstrual cycle and birth control affect strength and performance in athletes
This study tests how natural menstrual cycle phases and monophasic birth control influence strength, hydration, and energy balance in female athletes.
-
Outcome feedback to improve shoulder rotator force and speed
This study will test whether giving athletes immediate outcome feedback during static shoulder exercises helps them produce more peak force and develop force faster.
-
Pain and moderate exercise in midlife former athletes, masters athletes, and nonathletes
This trial tests if moderate-intensity strength versus aerobic exercise changes pain before and after workouts in adults aged 35–65 who are former competitive athletes, current master's athletes, or nonathletes.
-
Blood-based markers linked to aerobic (VO₂max/VO₂peak) fitness
This project will try a blood test to see if it can predict VO₂max/VO₂peak in adults who can safely complete maximal exercise testing.
-
Fractal versus steady visual walking cues after ACL reconstruction
This tests whether fractal (variable) visual walking cues or steady metronome-like cues help athletes who had ACL reconstruction walk with steadier, safer patterns.
-
Preventing under-fueling in collegiate athletes with improved nutrition
This project will try routine nutrition screenings and sports-dietitian support to prevent low energy availability in Division III collegiate athletes at Case Western Reserve University.
-
Evaluating diet and nutrition in athletes and active individuals
This study looks at the eating habits and nutrition knowledge of Italian athletes and active people to see how well they follow the Mediterranean Diet and how it affects their health.
