Abstract

Unlike boy students, girl students usually stop growing at the age of 12-14, so an appropriate exercise program should be developed as they go on to the higher grades. Therefore, this study tried to find the effect of core stability exercise using unstable surfaces on the lower body alignment and balance capacity of children, targeting a total of 32 girl students in their 4th-6th grades of the elementary school, including 16 students in exercise group exercising two times a week for 24 weeks and 16 students in control group. In the leg flexion angle, leg tilt, calcaneal bone angle, clacaneal bone tilt and Pedalo score the exercise group showed a statistically significant difference between pre-exercise and post-exercise. The control group showed no significant difference between pre-exercise and post-exercise. Through this study, we could find that the participation in core stability exercise on unstable surfaces can bring many positive changes to the lower body alignment of elementary school students.
