NCT ID NCT07331012

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether using a flywheel device for arm exercises can improve basketball skills, muscle oxygen levels, and reduce fatigue in 36 healthy male teen players, ages 10-18. One group will do flywheel exercises 3 times a week for 8 weeks, while the other group uses traditional dumbbells. Researchers will measure skills like passing and shooting, muscle oxygenation, and perceived fatigue before and after training.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a better way to train upper body strength and reduce fatigue in young athletes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 36 participants, so results may not apply to all athletes. The intervention is exercise-based, so benefits may be modest.
