5. Study Description

Brief Summary

CONTEXT: Low back pain (LBP) is a common complaint in gymnasts. A deficit in the control of lumbopelvic movement has been related to low back pain. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to examine the effectiveness of an education session about low back motor control during hip extension in the lumbopelvic sagittal movement control of elite gymnasts. DESIGN: single-group, pretest-posttest clinical trial. PARTICIPANTS: 70 Elite Rhythmic Gymnasts INTERVENTION: One standardized theoretical practical session of 15 Min that includes anatomical issues and one practical exercise in quadruped position for controlling the movement of lumbar spine during hip extension and flexion.
