Clinical Trial Summary

This randomized controlled trial aims to explore the effect of a toe flexion resistance training protocol on toe flexion strength and morphology, as well as in older adults (65-85 completed years) mobility related construct. The study consists of a 4 weeks control period, followed by 8 weeks intervention period and 4 weeks follow up.


Clinical Trial Description

During the first period participants are unaware of their allocation, while in the intervention period they will be allocated to a training intervention or a control group (habits maintenance). The primary outcome is the toes maximal voluntary isometric plantarflexion. The treatment effectiveness estimand is the same as in a pretest-posttest case control study, considering considering the end of the control period as pre-point. An estimation of the individual variability in response to the treatment will be provided. ;
