Porto Feliz, São PauloAges 18–35 - NCT07237867Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for knee pain in athletes
This study tests if a mild electrical current to a nerve in the groin area can improve thigh muscle strength in athletes with long-standing jumper's knee (patellar tendinopathy). The goal is to see if this treatment can help reduce pain and improve function.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18–40 - NCT07445269Enrolling by invitation
Breathing muscle warm-up for athletes
This study looks at whether warming up your breathing muscles before exercise can help make them stronger during both fast, explosive workouts (like sprinting) and longer, steady endurance exercise (like jogging). It might be a good option for young athletes who want to see if a simple warm-up can boost their performance.
ÇorumAges 14–30 - NCT07646899Recruiting
Unstable Loads and Shoulder Movement in Overhead Athletes
This study investigates how using unstable equipment (like a wobbly barbell) affects shoulder blade movement and muscle use during overhead pressing in athletes with shoulder impingement pain. The goal is to understand whether unstable loads might help improve shoulder mechanics and reduce pain in overhead athletes.
TaipeiAges 18–40 - NCT07587346Recruiting
Vibration and Relaxation for Athlete Girls With Triad Syndrome
This study tests whether whole-body vibration (gentle shaking platforms) and relaxation techniques can help teenage female athletes with the Triad Syndrome—a condition involving low energy intake, missing periods, and weak bones. The goal is to improve bone health and restore normal menstrual cycles.
CairoAges 14–16 - NCT07510893Recruiting
Shoulder feedback study for healthy young adults
This trial tests whether extra feedback during shoulder exercises improves performance. It is for healthy volunteers aged 18-30 with no current injuries or health problems.
Ankara, SıhhıyeAges 18–30 - NCT07521280Recruiting
Custom rehab for young athletes with knee or heel pain

OlomoucAges 18–35 - NCT07726056Recruiting
Heart ablation in athletes with atrial fibrillation
This trial tests if a heart procedure (cardiac ablation) helps endurance athletes who have atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) perform better in sports. Athletes will track their training data before and after the procedure to see if their performance improves.
MelbourneAges 18–80 - NCT07721220Recruiting
Nerve gliding moves for strength and endurance in athletes
This study tests whether a gentle nerve-stretching technique (neurodynamics) can improve leg strength and endurance in athletes. If you're 18–30, currently active in sports or intense training, and have no recent leg injury or surgery, you may be able to join.
High Point, North CarolinaAges 18–30 - NCT07719179Recruiting

Sant Cugat del Vallès, BarcelonaAges 18–30 - NCT07715786Recruiting
Blood flow restriction with hamstring exercise in teen athletes
This study tests if adding blood flow restriction (using a cuff that limits blood flow) to a standard hamstring exercise helps elite teen athletes build strength and prevent injury. You would perform the Nordic Hamstring Exercise twice, once with and once without the cuff, so researchers can compare the effects.
AdanaAges 14–18 - NCT07715292Enrolling by invitation
