Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Individuals participating in the study will be randomly divided into two groups through the randomized allocation software program. The first group will be given Clinical Pilates exercise training, while the second group will be considered as the control group. The exercises will be applied to the group attending the Clinical Pilates exercise training for 45-60 minutes, twice a week for a total of 8 weeks. Each movement will consist of one set and 10 repetitions. In the Clinical Pilates program, equipment and exercises will be gradually increased. Equipment to be used throughout the Clinical Pilates program; Pilates cushion, Elastic resistant band (red, green, blue), Exercise ball (65 cm) In the Clinical Pilates group, the training session will start with the warm-up program, core stabilization training, clinical Pilates exercises will be applied to increase the postural smoothness and strength, and the exercise session will be terminated with the cooling period. The clinical Pilates group will be given 5 key elements of clinical Pilates (Respiratory-Centre focus- Chest placement - Shoulder placement - Head-neck placement) will be explained. No exercise program will be applied to the control group for 8 weeks. A sufficient number of trials will be conducted to enable participants to adapt to the evaluation and treatment.
