OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of core training on boxer's fitness, trunk insokinetic muscular function, and body-composition.
METHODS: Sixteen boxing athletes participated in two trials: (1) core training, and (2) control. Fitness factors, trunk isokinetic muscular function, and body composition measurements were performed at pre (0 week), post (8 weeks).
RESULTS: Core training was effective in improving trunk flexion, single leg stance, whole body reaction time, grip strength in post-test than in pre-test. Also, was effective in improving 30°/sec peak torque of flexor, 120°/sec mean torque of extensor in post-test than in pre-test. Core raining increased body weight and body fat mass.
CONCLUSIONS: These suggest that core training can have a positive impact on the performance of boxers.
