Isokinetic Fatigue Index in a Population of Triathletes

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Musculoskeletal Diseases
• Interventions: Diagnostic Test: isokinetism test

• Registration Number: NCT05635422
• Lead Sponsor: Boulogne sur Mer Hospital Center

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the relevance of carrying out a measure of muscular fatigability by isokinetism, in the search for factors favouring micro-traumatic lesions of the lower limbs in a population of triathletes.

This is a prospective monocentric pilot study of the before/after type in which the patient is his or her own control, in high-level triathletes practising an endurance sport, who have had more than 7 consecutive days off running due to a musculoskeletal injury during the previous sporting year.
