The Effects of Static Balance Scale of Trunk Stability Exercise using Happyback in College Students in 20s

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of trunk stability exercise used Happyback on static balance ability in college students in 20s. Thirty subjects participated in the experiment. Males and females were divided into 15 subjects in the experimental group and 15 subjects in the control group by random same ball selection. The experimental group applied the trunk stabilization exercise using the Happyback, and the control group applied the trunk stabilization exercise without the Happyback. The exercise program consisted of a total of 5 sets of balance support posture, left side plank posture, right side plank posture, bridge posture, and quadruped posture in a sitting state, and was performed 3 times a week for 4 weeks. The static balance index was measured with Tetrax, a posture measuring device. The subjects measured the static balance index before and after the experiment. The experimental group decreased in SS and WDI, but was not significant, increased significantly in force plate AB and force plate BD, and increased but not significant in force plate CD, force plate AC, force plate AD, and force plate BC. It is considered to prove that the static balance index improved when normal people performed trunk stabilization exercise using Happyback. In conclusion, Trunk stabilization exercise using Happy Bag is highly recommended as a new exercise method for static balance at home.
