Where the core muscle involves the muscles of hip and trunkand it helps to maintain the stability of the pelvis and spine. When the core muscles function normally, they can maintain the segmental stability, protect the spine and reduce the stress impacting on the intervertebral disc and the lumbar vertebrae. Core stability is very importantfor stabilization and mobilization and also helps for upper and lower extremity function andit provides the balance and local strength to reduce the back injuries. Core muscle weakness is due to prolonged adaptation and faulty posture and lack of physical activity may lead to excessive load on the lumbar spine and back, poor endurance of muscles, instability of lower extremity and muscular imbalance.
