Clinical Trial Summary

Introduction. The prevalence of ankle injuries in basketball are high. The lack of balance in the ankle is one of the main causes that produces these injuries. The goal of core training is to increase the physical capacities of resistance strength in the abdomen and analyze if it produces improvement in proprioception in the ankle joint in basketball players.

Objective. To evaluate the effectiveness of Core training to improve the strength of the abdomen and analyze if it produces improvement in proprioception in ankle of basketball players.

Study design. Randomized, multicentric, single-blind clinical study with a follow-up period.

Methods. The 30 participants recruited will be randomly assigned to the two study groups: experimental (Core training for strength in the abdomen) and control (without intervention). The treatment will last 4 weeks, with 3 weekly sessions, approximately 20 minutes each. There will be three evaluations (pre-intervention, post-intervention and follow-up). On the dependent variables: strength core resistance (evaluated with Trunk Flexor Test, Trunk Extender Test, and Side Bridge Test) and proprioception (measured with the Star Excursion Balance tests and Romberg test) With the Kolmogorov Smirnov statistical test we will calculate the normality and with the t-student test of paired data and an ANOVA of repeated measures, we will obtain the difference between the three evaluations and the intra and intersubject effect, respectively.

Expected results. To observe improvement in strength in the abdomen and analyze if it produces improvement in proprioception in the ankle of basketball players.
