NCT05714046

Brief Summary

Although there are frequent studies on core strength in tennis players in the literature, studies on exercise applications targeting the development of physical fitness parameters are limited. In this context, it was aimed to investigate the effect of telerehabilitation method and yoga exercise practice on core stabilization and physical fitness.
