First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two exercise approaches—Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) and the Feldenkrais Method—to see which better improves agility, balance, and endurance in male cricket players. Forty-two players aged 18-30 from a club in Pakistan will be split into two groups, each doing one method for 50 minutes per session. Their performance will be measured using standard tests like the T-test and plank test.
