Kettlebell and breathing exercises for lung health in overweight young adults
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study tests a 12-week program of kettlebell exercises combined with breathing exercises to see if it improves breathing muscle strength and lung function in young adults who are overweight or obese. If you are interested in improving your fitness, it may be a good option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 25 years old.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 23 or higher.
- You are not physically active (exercise less than 3 days a week or less than 150 minutes per week).

This study looks at how your body shape, measured by the body roundness index, affects your breathing and exercise ability. It may help doctors understand how obesity impacts daily activities and fitness.
This study tests whether different breathing exercises can improve lung function and heart rate variability in healthy, inactive young adults. It may help you understand how simple breathing techniques can affect your breathing and heart health.
This study looks at how obesity affects breathing and physical function. It tests whether a special exercise program can improve lung and muscle strength in people with obesity who have a restrictive breathing pattern.
This study tests whether a special breathing exercise (functional inspiratory muscle training) can help people recover better after lung cancer surgery. If you are between 18 and 80, have completed your lung cancer treatment, and are now in remission, this program may improve your breathing and strength.
This study tests whether home-based breathing exercises and aerobic workouts can improve lung function in older adults who are current or former smokers. It may help you feel better and breathe easier.
This trial tests whether a daily breathing exercise device can improve blood flow to the brain and immune function in people with obesity. It may help reduce health risks linked to excess weight.
