Sprint Training clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Recovery Kinetics After Different Sprint Training Protocols (STRecovery)

STRecovery

Start date: March 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Speed is one of the most important physical capacities for many sports, especially those that include speed and power as a major element, and plays a major role on performance. Running speed improvement is one of the most basic components of a sprint and power athlete's training program. One of the most commonly used strategies to improve the initial acceleration phase, is resisted sprint training. Sprinting is performed through the stretch-shortening cycle and highly includes the component of eccentric muscle contraction, which can lead to exercise induced muscle damage (EIMD). This phenomenon includes symptoms such as plasma CK elevation, delayed onset of muscle soreness, reduction in force production and a reduction in agility and speed. However, despite the fact that sprint training can cause EIMD symptoms and a performance reduction the following days, research evidence on the recovery kinetics after sprint training are scarce. However, such information is critical for coaches and athletes, in order to effectively design a training program and incorporate the training components in the training microcycle, to avoid injuries and maximize performance. The aim of the present study is to examine the recovery kinetics of EIMD indices, muscle performance and neuromuscular fatigue, after different sprint training protocols.
