ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Resistance training aims to improve the physical fitness of an athlete by improving their balance, movement, and agility skills. Boxers should have complementary attention to the strength of the core, a key area for boxing skills.
Objective:
Examine the effects of core strength training on pugilism in boxers.
Methods:
Ten volunteer professional boxers were selected. All undergo three months of core strength training under the described protocol. The athletes' sport quality index was studied using mathematical statistics.
Results:
After 3 months of core strength training, the physical test result was significantly higher (P<0.01). Although in 400-meter runs, sandbag training and interval running scores were higher than before training, the difference was insignificant (P>0.05).
Conclusion:
The core strength exercises improve the body mass of a boxing athlete and the level of their boxing. Supplementing athletes with core resistance training during regular exercise is indicated. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.
