Clinical Trial: How Eccentric Closed Chain Training Affects Knee Strength and Muscle Properties in Soccer Players.

U.S., May 24 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06987344) titled 'How Eccentric Closed Chain Training Affects Knee Strength and Muscle Properties in Soccer Players.' on May 15.

Brief Summary: The goal of this study is to learn whether a 6-week lower-body training program using closed kinetic chain (CKC) exercises with slow, controlled movements (called "eccentric time under tension") can improve leg muscle strength and muscle-tendon viscoelastic properties in male university soccer players.

The Main Questions Are:

1. Does this type of training improve knee strength?

2. Does it change the way muscles and tendons respond to movement or pressure?

What Will Participants Do?

1. Join one of two grou...
