Brief Summary

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

The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of structured exercises for tennis serve performance by using 8-stage model.

Detailed Description

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

Tennis serve stroke is the most crucial component of tennis. 8-stage model like other training programs has proven to be effective in improving performance. This exercise program has yet not been implemented in Pakistani tennis players and remain to be tested in local population.

This randomized controlled trial has been designed to assess the effectiveness of 8-stage model based exercise program in Pakistani national tennis players. The present study has hypothesized that there will be a significant difference between the effects of 8-stage model and conventional training program. There are two arms of intervention in this study: experimental and control group. Experimental group would follow the 8-stage model based exercise training program while control group would follow their conventional exercise training program. Outcome measurements (speed, flexibility, strength) has been carried out at baseline and after 12 weeks.
