Brief Summary

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between pelvic oscillation, pelvic width and core muscle endurance between healthy athletes and sedentary subjects.

Conditions

Core Muscle Endurance; Athlete; Sedentary

Keywords

core muscle endurance; pelvis width; pelvis oscillation; sedentary; athlete

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Core Muscle Endurance

  Evaluation of core muscle endurance will be performed with the Wall Sit Hold, which have proven to be effective in the literature. In the Wall Sit Hold test, individuals will be asked to stand in a squat position with the hip and knee flexed and the back in full contact with the wall and to lift their right or left foot up and wait. The hold time will be recorded in seconds. 3 trials will be made for each foot and the results will be averaged. The higher the data obtained, the higher the core muscle endurance.

  four weeks

• Core Muscle Endurance

  In the Trunk Flexion Hold test, the individuals will be asked to sit on their hips and extend their upper body to the feet and knees that are lifted off the floor and wait in this position. The holding time will be recorded in seconds. The hold time will be recorded in seconds. 3 trials will be made for each foot and the results will be averaged. The higher the data obtained, the higher the core muscle endurance.

  four weeks

• Core Muscle Endurance

  In the Horizontal Trunk Hold test, individuals will be asked to extend both arms to the side without bending their back and wait in the crawling position. The hold time will be recorded in seconds. 3 trials will be made for each foot and the results will be averaged. The higher the data obtained, the higher the core muscle endurance.
