Summary

This study will test different exercise programs for adults aged 40 to 60 with chronic low back pain. Participants will be assigned to gym-based resistance training, physiotherapy exercises, or home-based routines, some with a special belt that gives feedback on core muscle activity. The goal is to see which approach best reduces pain and improves physical function over 8 weeks.
