ABSTRACT

Kiatkulanusorn S, Luangpon N, Suato BP, Sobhon P. Effects of Hula Hooping Exercise on Lumbar Stability Level and Transversus Abdominis Function in Asymptomatic Individuals with Poor Lumbar Stability. JEPonline 2020;23(1):1-14. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of hula hoop exercise (HE) and core stabilization exercise (SE) on lumbar stability level and transversus abdominis (TrA) function in subjects with poor lumbar stability. Forty-five healthy participants exhibiting poor lumbar stability were randomly allocated into HE, SE, and control groups. The HE and SE groups attended the exercise sessions 3 times∙wk-1 over a 4-wk period. Lumbar stability level was assessed via a modified isometric stability test (MIST). TrA function was measured via a prone test and reported in terms of absolute and classified TrA. The results revealed that the effects of time on MIST and absolute TrA in the SE and HE groups (P ................
