Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Wii fit Plus

This study group will perform the following Wii fit plus exercises

* Single-Leg Extension
* Arm and Leg Lift
* Balance Bridge
* Single-Leg Twist
* Single-Leg Reach
* Sideways Leg Lift
* Single Arm Stand
* Torso Twists
* Plank

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Group A

Intervention Type OTHER

Subjects will perform following exercises, Single Leg Extension, Arm and Leg Lift, Balance Bridge, Single-Leg Twist, Single Leg Reach, Sideways Leg Lift, Single Arm Stand, Torso Twists and Plank exercise with minimum one set and maximum two sets. 30 seconds will be rest time between each set. Subjects will be encouraged to increase the number of repetitions after every 2 weeks, except in Plank exercise in which holding position time will be initially 30 seconds in each set and will be encouraged to increase holding time after every 2 weeks.

Core Stability

This study group will perform the following exercises.

* Curl-up
* Side Bridge
* Bird Dog

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Group B

Intervention Type OTHER

Subjects will perform Side Bridge, Bird Dog and Beginner Curl-up exercise in the first three weeks and Side Bridge, Bird Dog and Intermediate Curl-up exercise in the last three weeks. Repetitions per set will be 5, 4, 3 in first two weeks, 7, 6, 5 in third and fourth weeks and 9, 8, 7 in last two weeks. 8-10 seconds will be holding time in each repetition. 30 seconds will be rest time between each set
