Arm Recovery Exercises After Stroke: Two Training Methods Compared
This study tests two different physical therapy approaches to help improve arm movement and function in people recovering from stroke. You'll participate in therapy sessions using either rhythmic initiation (guided movement exercises) or isometric training (muscle-tightening exercises) to see which helps your arm recover better.
Faisalābad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT05143931Recruiting
Avoid and resist habits to manage weight
This study looks at strategies to help people manage their weight by changing how they respond to food-related cues and habits. It tests whether these approaches can be used over time with regular, brief check-ins.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 14 years+ - NCT07130812Recruiting
Blood flow restriction training for rowers with back pain
This study tests whether a special training technique called blood flow restriction can help rowers aged 13-20 with mild or recurring back pain. It involves wearing bands on your legs while rowing, which may help you build strength and recover while reducing pain.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 13–20 - NCT05241197Recruiting

This study tests whether gentle resistance exercises plus a blood-flow restriction wrap can reduce long-lasting Achilles tendon pain. You may be asked to train in the clinic several times a week for 12 weeks.
Rosario, Santa Fe ProvinceAges 18–50 - NCT07628478Recruiting
Blood Flow Restriction Training for Military Strength
This study tests a special training method that uses arm or leg bands to restrict blood flow during exercise, designed to help military cadets build muscle and increase strength more effectively. Researchers want to see if this technique improves body composition and maximum strength.
Changsha, ChangshaAges Any age - NCT07369440Recruiting
Power training for fall risk in older adults
This study tests whether a community-based power training program can help reduce fall risk in older adults. It compares results for people who have fallen in the past year and those who haven't.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for resistance training?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 194 recruiting resistance training studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a resistance training trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a resistance training trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
