Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.

Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Summary

This trial tests whether adding kettlebell swing training to breathing exercises improves respiratory muscle strength and lung function in overweight and obese young adults aged 18 to 25. Participants will either do kettlebell swings combined with breathing exercises or breathing exercises alone, three times a week for six weeks. Researchers will measure breathing strength, lung capacity, heart rate variability, and body composition to see if the combined approach offers extra benefits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Kettlebell swing training combined with breathing exercises
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple exercise routine that helps overweight young adults breathe better and improve their heart and metabolic health.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The benefits could be modest, and the study does not measure long-term effects.
