Sponsor's own description
This study, titled The Effect of Free Weight Resistance Training (FWRT) on Cognitive Function Explored through Eye Tracking, will be a randomized double-blind clinical trial aimed at evaluating how FWRT influences cognitive processing in healthy young adults. Eye-tracking technology will be used to measure reading metrics and DXA scans will be used to measure body composition before and after a 10-week FWRT intervention. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group, which will undergo a 10-week FWRT program, or a control group. This study will provide insights into the potential benefits of free weight resistance training on the cognitive performance of text processing tasks.
