Clinical Trial Summary

With our study, we aim to contribute to the literature by determining the effects of core stabilization and resistance exercise applications on muscle strength, endurance, balance, flexibility and performance in latin dancers. It is also aimed to raise awareness of the necessity of an exercise program in order to improve physical fitness parameters in addition to dance training in dancers. Considering the physiological demands of dance and dancer, it is necessary to develop a dance-specific approach by blending physical condition and art. Our study aims to contribute in this context.


Description:

Within the scope of our study, the voluntary participation of 36 Latin dancers was planned. Dancers will be randomly divided into two groups, core stabilization exercises in one group and resistance exercises in the other group. An evaluation form developed by the researchers will be used as a data collection tool in the research. Before starting the study, a form containing demographic data (gender, age, height, weight, educational status) and medical history (chronic illness, previous injury, eating disorder) of the participants will be filled. Before starting the training, sit and stand test will be applied to evaluate the lower extremity muscle strength to evaluate the physical fitness parameters of the dancers, the plank test to evaluate the endurance, the Y balance test to evaluate the balance, the sit and reach test to evaluate the flexibility and the squat jump test to evaluate the performance. After the evaluation process, an exercise program for 6 weeks, 2 days a week and approximately 30-45 minutes (including warm-up and cool-down) will be applied for both groups. Core exercises will be applied to the 1st group, and resistance exercises will be applied to the 2nd group. Progress during the program will be achieved by increasing the intensity of the exercises. After 6 weeks of work, physical fitness parameters and performance will be evaluated again.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary sit to stand test Within 30 seconds after the command is given, the participant repeats the full standing position from the fully seated position as quickly as possible. How many repetitions of sitting and standing are recorded during a 30-second period two weeks
Primary plank test The tester records in seconds how long the participant stayed in this position two weeks
Primary Y balance test There is an angle of 135 degrees between the rear strips and the front strip, and 45 degrees between the rear stripes. While trying to balance on one foot, the participant reaches out with the other foot in three different directions as far as possible. The specific test order is right anterior, left anterior, right posteromedial, left posteromedial, right posterolateral, and left posterolateral. The test manager records the participant's reach in centimeter to calculate the YBT composite distance. two weeks
Primary sit and reach test While sitting with the legs in a straight position, the person is asked to reach forward as far as possible without bending their knees, with their feet on a fixed object, with their hands on the coffee table, and wait for 2 seconds. In this position, the distance between the fingers and the object on which the foot rests is measured. Values before the object surface are recorded as negative, after values as positive, in centimeters two weeks
Primary squat jump test For a successful jump attempt, the participant must maintain the landing position for at least 2 seconds with her hands at waist level after the jump. two weeks
