| Summary: | Core strength training is critical for enhancing athletic performance, yet its specific impact on power, agility, and balance among racquet players remains underexplored [1]. This study investigates these acute effects, addressing a gap in research, particularly for university-level badminton athletes. By understanding these relationships, the findings aim to guide targeted interventions for improved performance in racquet sports [2]. This study involved 20 badminton players (ages 18–29, ≥1 year experience) performing core strength exercises: mountain climb (40 sec), plank (1 min), bicycle crunch (15 reps), and medicine ball slams (10 reps), all in 3 sets. Power, agility, and balance were assessed using the standing broad jump, slalom test, and tandem walk test, respectively, to evaluate acute effects [3]. |
