Summary

There are many studies in the literature on diaphragmatic breathing exercise and posture exercises, but there are limited studies examining the effects of diaphragmatic breathing exercise and posture exercises on posture, pain and quality of life in e-athletes.

The investigators aim to contribute to the literature by examining the effects of diaphragmatic breathing exercise and posture exercises on posture, pain and quality of life in e-athletes.

Diaphragmatic breathing exercise and posture exercises

Diaphragmatic breathing exercise: Before starting the exercise protocol, individuals in the exercise group will be given training on diaphragmatic breathing exercises. During the exercise sessions, individuals will be advised to place one hand on their abdomen and the other on their chest while lying on their back and to increase abdominal movement by breathing slowly through the nose, thus decreasing rib cage movement. The diaphragmatic breathing exercise will be performed for 5 minutes. Posture exercises: Individuals will be given posture exercise training before starting the exercise protocol. The smoothness of the movements will be checked throughout the exercise. Chin tuck, shoulder rotation, neck extension with exercise rubber and right-left lateral flexion, pectoral stretching with hands behind, pectoral stretching in the corner and head rib cage extension exercises will be applied as posture exercises. Each exercise will be done with 10 repetitions.
