Sponsor's own description

Introduction. Nonspecific lumbar pain is a very common cause of sports decline in boxers, possibly due to the repetitive movements of flexion and rotation in their sport, so the investigators believe it is interesting to seek an intervention that helps these athletes to reduce their incidence.

Aim. To improve non-specific low back pain, range of motion of trunk flexion; the muscular resistance of the spinal erectors and the subjective perception of the effort in federated boxers older than 18 years.

Study design. Randomized, multicentric and double-blind clinical trial with follow-up period.

Methods. 60 federated boxers of legal age will be recruited, who will be randomly assigned to the study groups: experimental (Core and Kinesiotape® exercises) and control (Core exercises and Kinesiotape® tubes without tension). The intervention will last 4 weeks, with 2 weekly sessions, lasting 35 minutes. Three evaluations will be carried out (pre-treatment, post-treatment and follow-up) for the dependent variables. The analysis of normality will be carried out with the Kolmogorov Smirnov test and in case of homogeneity of the sample, with the t-student test of related samples and the ANOVA of repeated means, the difference between the evaluations and the intra e effect will be calculated. intersubject, respectively.

Expected results. It is expected to observe the effectiveness of the Core and Kinesiotape® exercises in the perception of nonspecific lumbar pain, the range of movement of trunk flexion and lumbar resistance, and the perception of effort.
