This prospective, multi-site, single-arm interventional study evaluates the 5-Line Principle of Balanced Progressive Intensity Training (BPIT) over 5 weeks in healthy adults aged 18-65 years. All participants receive supervised BPIT sessions (3-5 per week) progressing through five intensity lines defined by anatomical landmarks and ground reaction force:
Ground-Based (Low) Knee-Level (Low-Moderate) Standing (Moderate) Head-Level (Moderate-High) Plyometric (High-Impact)
The study aims to quantify improvements in functional movement efficiency, joint mobility, postural control, strength adaptation, and heart-rate variability while monitoring safety and individual overload indicators.
Adults aged 18-65 years Generally healthy with regular physical activity history (at least 1-2 sessions per week for the past 3 months) Able to commit to 3-5 supervised training sessions per week for 5 weeks Willing and able to provide written informed consent Cleared by pre-screening (no acute injury, no contraindications)
Acute musculoskeletal injury within the past 3 months Known cardiovascular, metabolic, or orthopaedic conditions that contraindicate exercise Pregnancy or planning pregnancy Use of medications or supplements that significantly affect muscle recovery or performance (e.g., corticosteroids, anabolic agents) Inability to follow the BPIT protocol or attend required sessions
Single group
Balanced Progressive Intensity Training (BPIT) 5-Line Method
Behavioral5-week supervised progressive training using the BPIT 5-Line framework developed by Dr. Neeraj Mehta.
Movement Efficiency Score (MES, 0-10)
Change from baseline in the proprietary Movement Efficiency Score (MES), a validated composite metric of biomechanical function, movement quality, and postural alignment (derived from MMSx Flaw Checklist, visual/video analysis, and functional mapping).
Range of Motion (ROM)
Change from baseline in joint range of motion (degrees) measured by goniometry at key sites (shoulder, hip, spine, ankle).
VAS Pain Score
Change from baseline in participant-reported pain/discomfort on a 0-10 Visual Analog Scale.
Strength Index
Change from baseline in Strength Index calculated as Reps × Load (or estimated 1RM where applicable) for key movements.
Mobility Limitation (%)
Change from baseline in self-reported percentage limitation in daily functional tasks due to mobility restrictions.
Heart Rate Variability (HRV - RMSSD)
Change from baseline in resting heart rate variability (RMSSD) as a biomarker of autonomic recovery.
