The objective of this study will be to compare the effects of isolated and integrated core stability training on power, balance and performance in fast bowlers.
Full description
Athletes consistently strive for improved performance, often incorporating strength and conditioning routines that inevitably include elements of core strengthening. The crucial question emerges: how does enhancing core strength and stability contribute to elevated athletic performance? Before delving into this issue, it is essential to clarify the concept of core strength and stability. The core consists of both passive and active components, including bones, muscles, and ligaments in the lumbar spine, pelvis, and hips. Core strength is characterized by the capacity of the core muscles to produce and sustain force. In contrast, core stability emphasizes the significance of passive and active stabilizing elements within the lumbo-pelvic area. Beyond mere strength, core stability denotes the adeptness of these stabilizers to uphold proper trunk and hip posture, equilibrium, and control during both stationary and kinetic activities. It can be conceptualized as the ability to sustain command over the core while exerting core strength or when met with external disruptions.
The objective of this study will be to compare the effects of isolated and integrated core stability training on power, balance and performance in fast bowlers. This study will be a Randomized Clinical trial. Data will be collected fromPakistan Sports Board, Lahore. Subjects fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be included in this study. Baseline measurements will be taken before the application of interventions. Treatment will be then given to control and intervention group according to their allocation. Post-Treatment values for the baseline measures will be taken. Pre, 6th week and 12th week post treatment values will be analyzed. All subjects received a total of three treatment sessions in a week over the period of 12 weeks. The data will be analyzed using SPSS v 25.
