This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
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.

Summary

This study looked at whether 12 sessions of horizontally oriented plyometric training (jumping and explosive exercises) over six weeks could improve sprint performance in 9 early-adolescent male track-and-field athletes. The researchers measured sprint times and movement patterns before and after training. The goal was to see if this type of training, done in a low-resource community setting, could help young athletes run faster.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Horizontally oriented plyometric training
What this could lead to
If effective, this training approach could help young athletes improve sprint speed with simple, low-cost exercises.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early study with only 9 participants and no control group. Results may not apply to other groups or settings.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Male early-adolescent track-and-field athletes aged 12-13 years. * Active participation in a municipal or community-based athletics training program in Antioquia, Colombia. * Minimum recent experience in athletics training according to the records of the local training program. * Ability to complete sprint testing, jump testing, and the planned plyometric training sessions. * Written informed consent provided by a parent or legal guardian. * Written or documented assent provided by the minor participant. Exclusion Criteria: * Current musculoskeletal injury, pain, or medical restriction that prevents sprinting, jumping, or participation in plyometric training. * Any cardiovascular, neurological, orthopedic, or other health condition contraindicating high-intensity physical exercise. * Failure to complete baseline or post-intervention assessments. * Absence from a substantial portion of the intervention sessions, according to the predefined adherence criteria. * Participation in another structured training or research intervention that could substantially affect the outcomes during the study period.
