Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study looks at whether 5 minutes of slow, paced breathing (called coherence breathing) before a treadmill test can improve how the heart and lungs respond during exercise. Twenty recreationally active adults will try both slow breathing and normal resting before a maximal exercise test. The goal is to see if this simple breathing technique can help people perform better and recover faster.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Coherence breathing (slow-paced breathing technique)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple breathing warm-up to boost exercise performance and recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early-stage trial with only 20 healthy adults. Results may not apply to other groups or real-world settings.
