From the registry
Poor sleep quality is increasingly prevalent among physically inactive young adults and is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes. Regular physical activity may improve sleep quality and circadian regulation, although evidence regarding recreational sports remains limited. This randomized controlled trial investigated the effects of a 4 week supervised recreational badminton program on sleep quality and salivary melatonin concentrations in physically inactive young adults. Participants were randomly assigned to either a badminton intervention group or a control group. Sleep quality and salivary melatonin levels were assessed before and after the intervention.
