Effects of an 8-week Jump Squat 15-m Swimming Start Swimmers
Colombia11 participantsStarted 2026-03-01
Plain-language summary
This study aims to examine the effects of a structured swimming training intervention on sport performance-related outcomes in 14- to 15-year-old federated swimmers from Club Huracanes. The study will use a single-group pre-post field design. Participants will complete baseline assessments before the intervention and post-intervention assessments after the final training week. The intervention will be integrated into the regular training process and will be supervised by the coaching and research team. Outcomes will include swimming performance-related measures and adherence to the intervention. Safety will be monitored throughout the study, and any adverse events or musculoskeletal complaints will be recorded. Written informed consent from parents or legal guardians and assent from the athletes will be required before participation.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
