Abstract
Purpose: The objective of the present study is to evaluate the effect of the lumbar core stabilization training on the lower trunk endurance performance among recreationally active players. Methods: This study is a randomized controlled trial in which 40 recreationally active subjects aged 18–27 years were equally alloted into two groups. One group was the control group, which received no intervention, and other group was the experimental group, which received lumbar core stabilization training of six-week duration. Lower trunk endurance performance was assessed using "time" (in seconds) as the dependent variable according to the various clinical tests such as Sorensen test, Plank tests (prone, right side, left side) and abdominal fatigue test. All test performance was done at day zero (pre-test) and after six weeks (post-test). Data were analyzed by independent t-test for between group comparison and paired t-test for within group comparison. Result: The finding of this study is that core stabilization training significantly improved (p ≤ 0.05) for the lower trunk endurance performance. Control group did not show any significant improvement in lower trunk endurance performance. Conclusion: This study concludes that core stability training leads to improvement in the lower trunk endurance performance.
