NCT ID NCT05395390
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 24, 2026
Summary
This study tested a hybrid home and on-site resistance training program in 72 adults with COPD, obstructive sleep apnea, or lingering COVID-19 symptoms. Participants completed 18 exercise sessions, 12 on-site, to see if the program could improve muscle loss and fatigue. The goal was to understand how the body responds to this type of training in people with and without chronic respiratory disease.

What this could lead to

What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study (72 people) that measured body responses, not long-term health outcomes. Results may not apply to everyone, and exercise programs require consistent effort.
