Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The study design will be a Randomized Controlled Trial. This study will be conducted in Pakistan Sports Board (PSB) Lahore. The study will be completed within the time duration of eight to ten months after the approval of the synopsis. The sample size will be 34 subjects. Non-probability convenient sampling technique will be used to recruit the individuals for the study. Then randomization will be done by lottery method to divide the individuals into 2 treatment groups. The experimental group A will be given Post isometric relaxation for 20 minutes for 4 weeks (four times per week) on the other hand experimental group B will receive Post facilitation stretching and after that measure their pre-post values on SPSS. Pain will be measured with VAS, range of motion with inclinometer and functional disability with athlete's disability index questionnaire. In this study, it will be aimed to examine the comparative effects of both techniques that affect pain, range of motion and functional disability with quadratus lumborum tightness in young fast bowlers.
