Summary

Core exercises play an important role in improving the overall fitness of gym-goer. They improve core stability, which is essential for maintaining proper posture and reducing the risk of injuries during workouts. Core exercises also help improve balance and coordination, which are important for daily activities and sports. Rotational exercises involve twisting movements that engage the core, while anti-rotational exercises focus on resisting twisting forces to enhance core stability.

It is a randomized clinical trial with non-probability convenience sampling technique. The sample size of the study is 28. It will be conducted in one rep fitness club and 360 fitness club in Lahore within 6 months after approval of synopsis. Participants in group A (Rotational exercise group) attended 3 times per week with 15 repetitions (3 sets of 15 repetitions) and approximately 30-45 minutes per session, for six weeks. Each training program led the participants followed by a series of exercises, (Rotational Crunch exercise, Single leg romanian deadlift with rotation, rotational medicine ball throws). Participants in group B (Anti-Rotational exercise group) attended 3 times per week, approximately 30-45 minutes per session, for six weeks. Training program led the participants followed by a series of exercises, (Quadruped exercise 3 sets of 15 repetition, planks 3 sets of 60 second hold, pallof press 3 sets of 15 repetition). The collected data will be analyzed in Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) 25.0. If data will be normally distributed, then parametric; if not normally distributed, then non-parametric.

The aim of the study is to compare the effects of rotational versus anti-rotational exercises on endurance, balance, and core stability in gym-goer.
