Exercise study for sore achilles tendons pulled before it began
NCT ID NCT06009536
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to see if a 12-week resistance training program could improve tendon health in people with Achilles tendinopathy, a condition causing pain and swelling in the Achilles tendon. Researchers planned to enroll at least 20 patients who would perform daily exercises that gradually increase load on the tendon. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no data was collected.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Achilles tendon loading exercise protocol (Silbernagel resistance training)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a simple exercise program to ease pain and improve function in people with Achilles tendinopathy.
What could go wrong
The study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no results are available. Even if conducted, it was a small early-stage study with no control group for the main intervention.
