Summary

This study tested a sequence of core stability exercises in 40 young adults with lower crossed syndrome, a condition where weak core muscles cause poor posture and back pain. Researchers measured changes in pelvic tilt, chest expansion, and diaphragm function using cameras and ultrasound. The goal was to see if these exercises could improve alignment and muscle function.
