About this study

The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of a 8-week, core stabilization exercise program on respiratory functions, muscle trunk endurance and postural stabilization in individuals taking basic acting education. The respiratory functions were assessed by the spirometer. Trunk muscle endurance was assessed by Fleksor Trunk Endurance Test (FTET), Biering Sorenson Test (BST) and Lateral Bridge Test (LBT). Postural stabilization was evaluated by Flamingo Balance Test (FBT) and Y Balance Test (YBT). The participants were randomly divided into two groups as Exercise Group (EG) and Control Group (CG) . Both people in EG and CG were taken diaphragmatic training program according to BAE. The core stabilization exercise program was administered for EG, twice a week, 45 minutes a day and for a 8-week duration.
