ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the effects of core training on physical fitness and performance in female badminton players from Guangxi, China. The goal is to see if improving core strength can help these athletes perform better in their sport, especially since the performance of Chinese women's badminton players has been declining. The findings from this research could help coaches design more effective training programs to boost their players' skills and results.

To be eligible for this trial, participants must be female university badminton players aged 18 to 22 who are in good health and have no current injuries. They should also be elite athletes, meaning they compete at a high level. Unfortunately, athletes who already train their core muscles, have injuries, or cannot commit to the full three-month training schedule won’t be able to participate. Those who join can expect to engage in a special training program focused on building core strength over three months. This could potentially enhance their overall performance in badminton competitions.
