NCT ID NCT07667491
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested two 8-week exercise programs in 45 amateur padel players to see if they could reduce risk factors for lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow). Both programs involved strength exercises for the forearm and shoulder. The goal was to improve wrist, grip, and rotator cuff strength, which are key to preventing elbow injuries.
