Registry summary
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Technogyms BioStrength equipment compared to traditional strength training equipment over a 12-week intervention period. The study will determine whether BioStrength machines produce more effective results in terms of muscle strength and body composition. Participants will be allocated to either the BioStrength group or the traditional training group using a minimisation technique to balance important prognostic factors such as handgrip strength, age and gender between the groups. Key measurements include maximum strength tests (10RM) for leg press and chest press, handgrip strength using a dynamometer, and body composition using bioimpedance analysis. Circumference measurements will also be taken. The study will assess whether BioStrength equipment provides superior results in muscle strength, body composition and training efficiency compared to conventional gym equipment.
