Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Individuals with Sarcopenia

• Registration Number: CTRI/2021/06/034062
• Lead Sponsor: Kairavi Kishorbhai Trivedi

Brief Summary

After 1 April 2021, participant recruitment will be start according to planned inclusion and exclusion criteria. Written informed consent form will be taken from the participants. Participants will be randomly allocated into intervention and control group. Pre-intervention all outcome measures will be measured by blinded outcome measure assessor. Intervention group will be given resistance training for 40-50 minutes 3 days a week for 2 months. Control group will be given advice to maintain physical health and walking activity daily for 20 minutes for 2 months. At the end of 2 month time period post-intervention all outcome measures will be measured by same technique. The data will be analyzed by SPSS software. Study will be done to check the effect of resistance training exercise on muscle cross sectional area, muscle girth, physical performance in individuals with sarcopenia.
