Brief Summary

Cardiopulmonary capacities of individuals are an indication of both the individual's exercise capacity and endurance. The most important indicator of cardiopulmonary capacity is maximum oxygen uptake and respiratory parameters. Auxiliary respiratory muscles exercises and core stabilization exercises have a place in increasing the maximum oxygen uptake. There are studies investigating the effects of respiratory muscle training and core stabilization training on maximum oxygen uptake in the literature. However, there is no study in the literature comparing the effects of auxiliary respiratory muscles exercises and core stabilization exercises on maximum oxygen uptake and respiratory parameters. Thanks to the findings to be obtained from our study, it is aimed to contribute to the literature with objective, evidence-based results in this field.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change from baseline in Maximum oxygen uptake at 6 weeks

    the VO2max values of the participants before and after the study will be measured with the H / P Cosmos Mercury Med device using the Balke Ware protocol.

    Baseline and week 6

  • Change from baseline in Pulmonary function tests at 6 weeks

    Forced expiratory volume in 1 second / forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC), vital capacity and maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) values of the participants will be measured with Cosmed Fitmate Med device before and after the study.

    Baseline and week 6

Study Arms (3)

Core stabilization Exercise

EXPERIMENTAL

Core stabilization exercise include, plank, lateral plank, swimmer, flutter kick and bridge exercises. Exercises will be carried out under the supervision of a physiotherapist 3 days in a week separate time periods. Our study will take 6 weeks.

Other: Core exercises

EXPERIMENTAL

Auxiliary respiratory exercises include, strengthening and stretching exercises for trapezius, sternocleidomastoideus, pectoralis major and serratus anterior muscles. exercises will be carried out under the supervision of a physiotherapist 3 days in a week separate time periods. Our study will take 6 weeks.
