Abstract BACKGROUND AND NEED OF THE RESEARCH
Skating is the sports activity where high intensity, coordinated movements are required along with the additional task to maintain the posture. Building the strong core is important for many different reasons including the sports and functional task. Having an adequate state of body balance allows the skater to control the execution of each sporting gesture. The need of the study is to assess the possible factors affecting sports performance and preventing injuries.
AIM
The aim of the study was to correlate the core stability with dynamic balance and quadriceps strength in adolescent roller skaters.
METHOD
Ethical clearance was obtained from institutional ethical committee. 76 adolescent roller skaters were randomly selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria from school and skating academy. Written informed consent and assent was taken. Core stability was assessed using mc gill endurance test and quadriceps strength using hand held dynamometer.
RESULT
Result were analysed using pearson correlation test. There was significant positive correlation of quadriceps strength with core stability in adolescent roller skaters (p=0.05) and there was significant positive correlation of trunk flexor muscle strength with dynamic balance in adolescent roller skaters (p=0.01).
CONCLUSION
There was positive correlation of core stability with dynamic balance and quadriceps strength among adolescent roller skaters.
