Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main objective of this study is to analyse the effectiveness of core stability exercises to increase motor control, function and resistance strength of the abdominal muscles, compared to a traditional abdominal and trunk exercise program in semi-professionals soccer players

Detailed Description

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

The 51 participants were semi-professional soccer player and were divided into two different groups using a computer system: the CORE-group or ABDOMINALS-group. Four weeks of training were developed. Outcome variables: Back extension test; Flexion endurance test; FMS; functional movement screen; lateral muscle test right; lateral muscle test left. Kinematic variables were recorded during the test using an accelerometer. A comparison intra-group and intergroup were developed.

Study Groups

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

Core Group

The Core Group carried out core stability exercises. Their training consisted of the following exercises: bridge, Klapp, front plank and lateral plank

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Core training

Intervention Type OTHER

A total of 12 sessions were carried out, which lasted for 4 weeks, with a frequency of 3 sessions/ week. The duration of each session was 11 minutes 30 seconds. The working time of each exercise was 30 seconds with a 5 seconds rest between exercises, meaning that each exercise cycle lasted for 2.50 seconds. Three exercise cycles were performed with a 90 seconds rest between each one of them

Abdominal Group

The Abdominal Group performed traditional exercises: trunk flexion or abdominal crunch, trunk extensions, lower abdominals with hip lifts and crunch with crossed legs

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Core training

Intervention Type OTHER

A total of 12 sessions were carried out, which lasted for 4 weeks, with a frequency of 3 sessions/ week. The duration of each session was 11 minutes 30 seconds. The working time of each exercise was 30 seconds with a 5 seconds rest between exercises, meaning that each exercise cycle lasted for 2.50 seconds. Three exercise cycles were performed with a 90 seconds rest between each one of them
