Core Stabilization Exercise Prescription, Part I

Core Stabilization Exercise Prescription, Part I

CONTEXT Injury to the low back can cause significant pain and dysfunction, which can affect an athlete's performance and result in time lost from sport. A common conservative treatment is therapeutic core stabilization exercises, which can address pain and musculoskeletal dysfunction in patients with low back pathology. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION MEDLINE and CINAHL were searched (from 1966 to March...

Core Stabilization Exercise Prescription, Part 2

CONTEXT Therapeutic exercises are frequently prescribed to patients with low back pain. Numerous exercise programs for patients with low back pain have been described. Many of these treatment programs are based on 1 of 2 popular rehabilitation strategies: a motor control exercise approach or a general exercise approach. DATA SOURCES PubMed clinical queries from 1966 to March 2013 for keyword ...

Core Stabilization Exercise Prescription, Part 2: A Systematic Review of Motor Control and General (Global) Exercise Rehabilitation Approaches for Patients with Low Back Pain

Core stabilization exercises enhance lactate clearance following high-intensity exercise.

Dynamic activities such as running, cycling, and swimming have been shown to effectively reduce lactate in the postexercise period. It is unknown whether core stabilization exercises performed following an intense bout would exhibit a similar effect. Therefore, this study was designed to assess the extent of the lactate response with core stabilization exercises following high-intensity anaerob...

Stochastic Nonlinear Stabilization|Part I: A Backstepping Design

While the current robust nonlinear control toolbox includes a number of methods for systems aane in a deterministic bounded disturbances, the problem when the disturbance is unbounded stochastic noise has hardly been considered. We present a control design which achieves global asymptotic (Lyapunov) stability in probability for a class of strict-feedback nonlinear continuous-time systems driven...
