Inside the body of an elite rower: study reveals Exercise's deep impact
NCT ID NCT07613619
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This observational study looks at how intense rowing exercise changes the body at a molecular and physiological level in 30 elite young rowers. Participants will perform two different rowing tests, and researchers will measure blood markers, gene activity, and other indicators before and after exercise. The goal is to better understand how the body adapts to high-intensity training and recovers, which could help improve training methods for athletes.
