Water Exercise for Muscle Loss in Adults Over 65
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether exercise in a swimming pool can help older adults rebuild muscle strength and mass. If you have age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia), this trial may help you regain strength and function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have been diagnosed with sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss) using a specific medical assessment
- You can walk on your own, with or without a cane
- You can understand instructions and follow an exercise program at home
- You do not currently take nutritional supplements or need special dietary support
- You are willing to participate voluntarily in the study

This study tests whether exercise during hemodialysis can improve muscle oxygen levels and how well dialysis works. It is for people who have been on dialysis for at least a year and have muscle loss (sarcopenia).
This trial studies whether a structured exercise and nutrition program can improve muscle health in older adults with (pre)sarcopenia, especially those who may have slower walking or reduced strength. It also checks safety by excluding people with unstable health problems and several specific medical conditions.
This study looks at how different types of exercise can change the bacteria in your gut for older adults who have muscle loss (sarcopenia). You will be assigned to one of two exercise programs to see which one helps your muscles and gut health the most.
This study tests a short, combined exercise program (mixing cardio and strength training) for people 60+ with type 2 diabetes who have signs of muscle loss. The goal is to see if this exercise approach can improve strength, physical function, and overall health.
This trial tests a combined exercise and nutrition program to help older adults with sarcopenia (muscle loss). It aims to improve muscle strength and function, especially for those with metabolic syndrome.
This study tests if whole-body electrical muscle stimulation exercise helps improve nerve signals to muscles in older adults. It compares older participants (65+) with younger ones (18-39) to see how this type of exercise affects muscle activation.
