About this study
Official title: Effects of Pilates and Burpees Exercises on Core Strengthening and Dynamic Balance in Cricket Players
This study will be a randomized clinical trial will be conducted in Ayub national park cricket club Sample size will be 48 to evaluate the effects of Pilates and Burpees exercises training among cricket players with an age range of 16-24 years. Non probability convenient sampling technique would be used. Participants will be randomly assigned to 2 groups. Group A will include participants who received Pilates exercises training (6 weeks) along with the warm up. Group B participant who will receive burpees exercise training (6 weeks) and warm up. Outcomes of both trainings are the effects on core strengthening and dynamic balance on players in A group and the B group. Post interventional assessment was done via Star excursion balance test, prone bridge test and 1 minute sit-up test. Data will be collected at baseline and 6 weeks. Data will be analyzed by SPSS version 25
Read the detailed description
Cricket is a most popular sport played throughout the world. It is played in three common formats depending on the duration of the game, firstly a Test match is played over 4-5 day's with around 90 overs per day Secondly One day match is shorter with 50 over on each side and the Last one is T-Twenty match much shorter with 20 over on each side. As each format places different physical demands on the players the require an extensive combination of tactics, skills and physical fitness in the form of strength, flexibility and balance. In our study we can focus on the basic core strengthening which is essential for physical fitness and better performance in the game. Primary the aim of this study is to evaluate the comparative effects of Pilates and Burpees exercises of core strengthening and dynamic stability of body in young cricket players

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Pilate exercisesOther
After 10 minutes of warmup excercises, participatants perform pilates exercises, Pelvic curl : 45 seconds hold The Hundred : 45 seconds hold Bird Dog : 45 seconds hold Side plank : 45 seconds hold Frequency 3 days a week intensity 45 minutes hold a pose. Time will be 10 to 15 minutes.
Burpees exercisesOther
After 10 minutes of warmup excercises, participatants perform burppes excercises.
- Stand straight with your feet shoulder-width apart.
- Squat and place your hands in front of your feet.
- Jump back until your legs are fully extended and your body is in plank position.
- Do a push up, jump forward, and then push through the heels to return to the starting position.
- Repeat until the set is complete. Frequency 3 days a week .Time 10 to 15 minutes with 10 reputation , 3 sets. Rest internal will be 10 seconds after each set.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Baseline warmup along with Pilate exercises | Experimental | Pilate exercises: Group A perform Pilates exercises for 6 weeks. In the initial stage of training Pilates exercises with lo intensity then we proceeded gradually with high intensity. Pilates was performed for core strengthening and dynamic balance Pelvic curl, The hundred, Side plank with 4-5 rep, 30 sec hold and 3 sets with each exercise. Receives: Other: Pilate exercises |
| : Baseline physical therapy treatment along with burpees exercises | Experimental | Burpees Exercises: Group B perform Burpees exercises for 6 weeks. In initial weeks of training Burpees exercises with low intensity then we proceeded gradually with high intensity exercises. Burpees was performed for core strengthening and dynamic balance .10 to 15 repetition ,3 sets with rest interval of 10 sec after each set of exercises Receives: Other: Burpees exercises |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Star excursion balance test:
Star Excursion Balance test is a dynamic test required for proprioception along with strength and flexibility. It is a measure of dynamic balance providing challenge to athletes and physically active individual
Measured: Pre and 6 week post interventional
One min situp test:
Abdominal muscle strength and endurance is important for core stability and back support. This sit-up test measures the strength and endurance of the abdominals and hip-flexor muscles
Measured: Pre and 6 week post interventional
Prone bridges test:
The prone bridge provides an indication of core abdominal strength.Prior to undertaking this test a member of the Health Promotion Unit will explain the test protocol and provide a demonstration to the group of Applicants
Measured: Pre and 6 week post interventional
