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 find out the Comparative effects of Plyometric training and Theraband Resistant Exercises on Agility, Power and Dynamic balance in karate Players with Patellofemoral Syndrome. Understanding how these methods impact agility, power, and dynamic balance provides practical insights for designing rehabilitation programs.It help therapists to find which evidence-based recommendations are beneficial for maximizing the athletes agility, power, dynamic balance and overall performance or well-being of the karate players with Patellofemoral pain syndrome.

Detailed Description

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

The literature gap in this study on the Comparative Effects of Plyometric Training and Theraband Resistant Exercises on Agility, Power and Dynamic Balance in Karate Players with Patellofemoral Syndrome may exist, there might be limited studies specifically addressing this unique combination of factors, further investigation is needed to explore the evidence based effect of these exercises on karate players with Patellofemoral syndrome, considering the interplay between the exercises and the sport specific demands.

Study Groups

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

Plyometric Training

Patient will be given baseline treatment that includes thermotherapy+ TENS+ low intensity high repetition exercises. After we will apply our basic intervention exercise, Plyometrics are primarily used by athletes to improve performance and are used in the fitness field to a much lesser degree. This training focuses on learning to move from a muscle extension to a contraction in a explosive way, for example repeated jumping.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Plyometrics Training

Intervention Type OTHER

Patient will be given baseline treatment that includes thermotherapy+ TENS+ low intensity high repetition exercises. After we will apply our basic intervention exercise, Plyometrics are primarily used by athletes to improve performance and are used in the fitness field to a much lesser degree. This training focuses on learning to move from a muscle extension to a contraction in a explosive way, for example repeated jumping.

Theraband Resistance Exercise

Patient will be given baseline treatment that includes thermotherapy+ TENS+ low intensity high repetition exercises. After we will apply our basic intervention exercise Therabands is a Set of bands which are primarily use for resistance Training for strength and Power.
