Correlation Between Core Stability Parameters and Injury Rate in Elite-Level Wrestling Sport: Results of 6-Month Follow-up
Our study demonstrates that there is a significant relationship between poor core stability parameters and injury burden. These results could suggest that a specially designed core-specific training program could help reduce injury rates in wrestling, provided that a controlled study-featuring core exercises administered to an experimental group-confirms the link between weak core stability and an increased risk of injury.
