The effects of shoulder stabilization exercises on muscle strength, proprioceptive sensory ability and performance in office workers with shoulder protraction

Objectives. Shoulder protraction is frequently seen in office workers because of working with excessive trunk flexion for a long time. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of stabilization exercises (SE) given in addition to office exercises (OE). Methods. Sixty office workers with shoulder protraction were divided into SE + OE (n = 30) and OE (n = 30) groups by stratified random sampling for 8 weeks and followed up for 4 weeks. Shoulder protraction was assessed with a caliper, muscle strength with a hand-held dynamometer, proprioception with an isokinetic dynamometer, vibration sense with a vibrometer and upper extremity functional performance with the closed kinetic chain upper extremity stability test. Results. There were significant improvements in all parameters in the OE + SE group, while increases in the strength of the upper trapezius, pectoralis major and infraspinatus muscles and in upper extremity functional performance were also found in the OE group (p < 0.05). During detraining, shoulder protraction, muscle strength, proprioception and upper extremity performance showed longer-term improvement with SE + OE (p < 0.05). Conclusion. The results obtained with the exercises demonstrate the importance of SE + OE in terms of maintaining proper posture and improving shoulder proprioception, muscle strength and functional performance.

Effect of Stabilization Exercises on Craniovertebral Angle and Cervical Range of Motion among Visual Display Users with Forward Head Posture

INTRODUCTION. VDT (video display terminal or visual display terminal) is used, especially in ergonomic studies, for the computer display. When using a VDT, static posture raises muscle tension, which causes a variety of neuromuscular symptoms, most frequently in the upper body, including discomfort, numbness, loss of function, and other symptoms. The advent of the technological revolution has rendered modern computing and communication tools indispensable for both professional and recreational purposes. The companies have extended its market reach by introducing their computing products, specifically Video Display Terminals (VDTs), beyond the confines of traditional business settings to include personal laptops used in residential spaces such as bedrooms. AIM. The study aimed to compare the effects of stabilization exercises vs traditional exercise on cervical range of motion and the Craniovertebral angle in VDT users with a forward head posture. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Comparative study design with 26 participants, comprising both genders with forward head posture between the ages of 20 and 35. Following selection, subjects were randomly divided into two groups: Group A, which received stabilization exercises, consist of 12 subjects; Group B, with 14 subjects; the main outcome measures were cervical range of motion and Craniovertebral angle. RESULTS. Group A shows statistically substantial improvement in all the outcomes. Group B also shows statistically significant improvement in selected cervical range of motion; however, the group did not improve the Craniovertebral angle and cervical rotations substantially. CONCLUSION. The results of the current study showed that stabilizing exercises are superior to conventional training in reducing the craniovertebral angle and increasing cervical range of motion in visual display terminal users with a forward head posture.

Effect of Stabilization Exercise Improve Balance in Joint Degenerative Pain

Increasing life expectancy and sedentary lifestyle in the elderly have an impact on physical changes, especially degenerative joint disease. Exercise is a modality that can provide physiological and therapeutic effects so that it can prevent, treat, and improve the quality of health. However, to find an exercise design that has the desired therapeutic effect requires a long journey and in-depth study. Many recent studies have shown that exercise initiates the secretion of proteins and tissue regeneration hormones which are very necessary for anti-aging in the elderly. The purpose of this study is to further enrich the exercise design which can be used as a reference for the high-risk elderly population and the elderly in general so that the quality of life and life expectancy are getting longer. The research method used pre and post design experimental studies through the purposive sampling technique method which was divided into 4 groups consisting of the control group, experimental group 1 and experimental group 2 which were carried out in August-October 2022 at Balai Warga RT 08 Kembangan Village, West Jakarta. Samples that met the inclusive and exclusion criteria were obtained by 18 respondents. To determine the range of motion and balance function assessment, the sample was measured with a range of motion and balance test instrument. Data were analyzed using a paired sample t-test to determine the effect of stabilization exercises on joint motion and balance function. Statistical test results p=0,001, (p&lt;0,05) experimental first group and p=0,011, (p&lt;0,05) experimental second group showed that there was a significant difference in the experimental groups 1 and 2 but there was no difference in the balance function p=0,414, (p&gt;0.05). The conclusion is that stabilization exercises affect the range of motion in degenerative joint pain.

Immediate Effects of Stabilization Exercises on Trunk Muscle Activity during Jump Header Shooting: A Pilot Study.

This study aimed to clarify trunk muscle activity during jump header shooting and examine the immediate effects of trunk stabilization exercises on trunk muscle activity. Nineteen males who had played soccer for over 5 years were assigned to either the trunk stabilization exercise group or the control group. Muscle activity during jump header shooting was measured before and after intervention. The intervention in the trunk stabilization exercise group was trunk muscle training, whereas that in the control group was sitting. The phases of jump header shooting and the effects of the interventions were compared. In pre-intervention measurements, the internal oblique activity during the push-off phase and early floating phase was significantly greater than that during the late floating phase (p < 0.01667). In pre-intervention measurements, the muscle activity of the internal oblique increased from the push-off phase, prior to the increase in muscle activity of the rectus abdominis and external oblique, whereas the muscle activity of all abdominal muscles increased immediately after take-off. The trunk stabilization exercise intervention decreased the muscle activity of the erector spinae (p < 0.05). There seems to be a certain activation sequence in the abdominals during jump header shooting, and a single application of stabilization exercises could possibly reduce the activation of the back muscles.

Immediate effect of stabilization exercises versus conventional exercises of the trunk on dynamic balance among trained soccer players.

Background:Trunk stability is key in controlling body balance and movements. Trunk Stabilization Exercises (TSE) and Conventional Trunk Exercises (CTE) are performed to improve dynamic balance. The authors have previously reported that dynamic balance was improved by a 12-week and 6-week TSE program. However, there is a dearth of research on its immediate effect on dynamic balance in trained soccer players.Objective:To compare the immediate effect of TSE with that of CTE on dynamic balance in trained soccer players.Methods:Forty-eight male soccer players (24.60 ± 1.38 years) participated in this crossover study, wherein each participant took part in three exercise sessions: TSE, CTE, and No Exercise control (NE), each consisting of three steps: pre-test, intervention and post-test, with an interval of one week between each exercise condition. To assess dynamic balance, the Y Balance Test-Lower Quarter (YBT-LQ) score in the anterior, posteromedial, and posterolateral directions was measured before and 5 minutes after each intervention.Results:The YBT-LQ composite score was significantly improved after TSE (0.51) as compared to CTE (0.22) and NE (0.04) (p<0.05). Furthermore, in TSE and CTE conditions, YBT-LQ scores of the posterolateral and posteromedial directions significantly improved at the post-test (p<0.05).Conclusion:Both TSE and CTE are effective in immediately improving dynamic balance; however, TSE showed greater improvement as compared to the latter. Immediate improvements in the posteromedial and posterolateral directions of the YBT-LQ were demonstrated after performing the TSE and CTE.

The Effects of Stabilization Exercises Combined With Pelvic Floor Exercise in Women With Nonspecific Low Back Pain: A Randomized Clinical Study

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of stabilization exercises (SEs) combined with pelvic floor muscle (PFM) exercises versus SE alone on pain intensity, functional disability, and static and dynamic endurance of trunk muscles in women with nonspecific low back pain (LBP). MethodsA total of 48 women with nonspecific LBP (26-45 years) participated in the study. They were randomly allocated into 2 groups. Group A received SEs combined with PFM exercises and physical therapy modalities, and group B received the same intervention without PFM exercises for 6 successive weeks (3 times/wk). Pain intensity, functional disability, and static and dynamic trunk muscle endurance were measured before and after treatment program. ResultsAfter treatment, both groups revealed significant improvements in pain intensity and functional disability scores (P ˂ .05), and significant increases in static and dynamic endurance of trunk flexor and extensor muscles (P ˂ .05). Moreover, there was higher significance in group A compared to group B regarding pain intensity, functional disability scores, and static and dynamic endurance of trunk muscles (P ˂ .05). ConclusionIn this study, the addition of PFM exercise to the SE and physical therapy modalities was more effective in reducing pain intensity, improving functional disability, and increasing the static and dynamic trunk muscle endurance in women with nonspecific LBP compared to SE alone.

Effects of stabilization exercises on disability, pain, and core stability in patients with non-specific low back pain: A randomized controlled trial

BACKGROUND: Many studies have emphasized the importance of stabilization exercises (SE) for the management of non-specific low back pain (NSLBP), yet there is no study assessing all aspects of core stability in comparing SE and other exercises. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of SE on pain and core stability by using core stability tests that focus on all aspects of core stability in patients with NSLBP. METHODS: Thirty-seven individuals with chronic NSLBP were randomly divided into two groups as SE and conventional exercises (CE). Both groups underwent the progressive exercise program three days per week for six weeks. The assessments were conducted before and after the exercise programs. The outcome measures included pain, disability, trunk strength, trunk flexor, extensor and lateral flexor endurance, function, flexibility, and motor control during eyes open/closed. RESULTS: All assessment parameters except motor control during eyes open improved after SE (p &lt; 0.05). Also, all assessment parameters except motor control during eyes open/closed and lateral trunk endurance improved after CE (p &lt; 0.05). When comparing groups for gain scores, there were more significant improvements in pain during activity, endurance and function after SE (p &lt; 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: SE is more effective than CE in reducing pain during activity and improving core stability regarding functionality and endurance.

Effectiveness of Specific Lumbar Stabilization Exercise for LBP among Postpartum Women: A Quasi-Experimental Study

Background: Postpartum back pain is common, with up to 75% of women experiencing back pain immediately following birth due to ligament laxity and postural changes. Besides the lack of pelvic floor muscles strength, urine leakage problem during coughing and sneezing also arises in this condition. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of stabilization exercise (SE) and Kegel exercise. Objective: To evaluate the pain intensity in rest and different functional activities before and after introducing spinal stabilization exercises in postpartum women with low back pain and also find out the effect of Kegel exercise. Study Design: A Quasi-Experimental (one group) pretest-posttest design was used. Methodology: 27 patients who were fulfill inclusion criteria within this study period with postpartum low back pain, attended at Gynecological and Women's Health unit, CRP, Mirpur, Dhaka was purposively chosen to conduct the study. Spinal stabilization exercise was applied to the participants to find out the effectiveness of this exercise. Kegel exercise was also introduced who have urine leakage problem among 27 patients. Participants received the exercise for 45 minutes, 2 times a week &amp; total 6 weeks. Besides this they performed the exercises at home 5 times a day also. A numeric pain rating scale was used to measure pain intensity in different functional activities such as swiping, squatting, chair sitting, heavy weight lifting, walking, and journey by bus or rickshaw, and stair climbing. Pain score was analyzed by calculating the "Wilcoxon Signed Ranked Test". Results: Results showed that relative improvement occurs in all participants in the experimental group. Pain scores on numeric pain rating Scale on different functional activities such as during toilet sitting, stair climbing, walking, during weight lifting, were relatively reduced which was also statistically significant (p≤ .05). Participants who have a urine leakage problem also recover from this problem. Conclusions: Lumbar stabilization exercises has effect on reducing pain and improving functional activities, and to solve the urine leakage problem Kegel exercise effective.

The Effect of Stabilization Exercise Using Pressurized Exercise on the Thickness of Abdominal Muscle

The subjects of this study performed 6 weeks of training with static stabilization exercises to investigate their effects on muscle thickness. The subjects were randomly divided into three groups; the group performing pressurization exercises utilizing an unstable supporting surface (n=10), the group performing pressurization exercises utilizing a stable supporting surface (n=10), and the control group (n=8). In order to find out the effects on the muscle thickness of the abdominal muscles, ultrasound images were obtained and image analysis was performed three times during this research. This data was collected at the start of the study, at the half-way point, and at the end of the study. There were significant differences in the timing-to-group interaction with regards to changes in muscle thickness of the rectus abdominis, the external oblique abdominis, and the internal oblique abdominis (p<0.05). However there was no statistically significant difference in group variation (p>0.05). Therefore, it was confirmed that the type of support surface employed while performing low-strength movement with pressurization has an effect on muscle thickness. In conclusion, a stabilization exercise program, due to changes in strength applied with pressurization, will affect changes in muscle thickness, and accordingly contribute to an improvement of the strength of the hips.

TheEffects of home-based stabilization exercises focusing on the pelvic floor on postnatal stress urinary incontinence and low back pain: a randomized controlled trial.

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and low back pain (LBP) are common postnatal problems. We aimed to compare the effects of stabilization exercises focusing on the pelvic floor on postnatal SUI and LBP. This two-arm, single-blind, parallel, randomized controlled trial was done on 80 women (mean age: 30.5, range: 20-45years), with postnatal SUI and LBP. They were randomized into two equal control and intervention groups. The control group received no treatment while the intervention group received home-based stabilization exercises focusing on pelvic floor muscles (PFM) 3 days a week for 12weeks, three sets a day; each set included three different types of exercise each week. Outcome measures were UI severity, assessed by ICIQ-UI-SF, low back pain functional disability, assessed by the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), LBP severity, assessed by visual analog scale (VAS), and PFM strength and endurance, assessed by vaginal examination. Transverse abdominis (TrA) muscle strength was assessed by manometric biofeedback. All outcomes were measured directly before and after treatment. In the intervention group, PFM strength, TrA muscle strength, functional disability and pain severity were significantly improved (P < 0.05). Within-group results showed that all outcomes except pain severity (P = 0.06) had directly improved in the intervention group after treatment (P < 0.05), while in the control group only PFM strength and endurance and UI severity had improved (P < 0.05). Home-based stabilization exercises focusing on the pelvic floor muscles could be effective for postnatal LBP and SUI. Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (Code: IRCT2017050618760N4).

The Effects of Stabilization Exercise on the Thickness of Lateral Abdominal Muscles During Standing Tasks in Women With Chronic Low Back Pain: A Randomized Triple-Blinded Clinical Trial Study.

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) often presents with a dysfunction in deep abdominal muscles activity during standing tasks. Although some studies indicated that deep abdominal muscle activity improved during some functional tasks following stabilization exercise (SE), there is no study to evaluate the effect of SE on lateral abdominal muscles thickness during standing postural tasks. The purpose of this study was (1)to evaluate the lateral abdominal muscles thickness in the participants with CLBP while standing on a balance board and (2)to compare the effects of SE and a general exercise (GE) program on the lateral muscles thickness changes. This was a between-groups, triple-blinded randomized controlled trial design. In total, 40 females with CLBP were randomly assigned into 2 groups: GE (control group) and supervised progressive SE (experimental group). Diagnostic ultrasound imaging was used before and after the intervention to measure lateral abdominal muscles thickness during standing on 2 different levels of platform in the Biodex Balance System. Visual analog scale and Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire were used to evaluate changes in pain intensity and disability. The results indicated significant increases in transverse abdominis muscle thickness during all standing tasks (P = .02) and significant decreases in pain intensity and disability following SE intervention (P < .001). However, the lateral abdominal muscle thicknesses were not changed after GE intervention while standing postural tasks (P > .05). The GE group revealed only significant decreases in pain intensity after intervention (P = .03). Supervised progressive SE improved the activity of deep abdominal muscles in standing postural tasks in the patients with CLBP.
