Acute and Chronic Effects of Resistance Exercise Training Among Young Adults With and Without Analogue Generalized Anxiety Disorder: A Protocol for Pilot Randomized Controlled Trials

ConclusionsThis pilot RCT examines the effect of an ecologically-valid RET intervention among young adults with subclinical levels of GAD. Given that GAD most often emerges during young adulthood, and young adults who display elevated subclinical symptoms are more likely to develop clinically significant psychopathology, investigating the effects of RET among individuals with emerging signs and symptoms of an anxiety disorder is particularly important.Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04116944.
