Summary

This study looks at how making the abdominal muscles tired affects hip muscle strength and balance in healthy adults. Seventy male college students will have their core muscles fatigued using a special machine, then their hip strength and balance will be tested. The goal is to understand the link between core endurance and hip function, which could lead to better injury prevention and rehabilitation programs.
