Abstract | ||||
This research aims to identify the impact of core strengthening training on some biomechanical and physical variables and the level of spike skills in volleyball. The researcher used the experimental method with a pre-test/posttest measurement design with two groups: an experimental group and a control group. The research sample consisted of 14 female 3rd year students at the Faculty of Physical Education for Girls at Helwan University. They were randomly divided into two groups: 7 in the experimental group and 7 in the control group. The researcher used video recording, biomechanical analysis of performance, and physical tests to measure the physical components in the research. She also used the smash spike test to measure spiking skill. Three training modules of the core training program were applied per week for 10 weeks. The duration of each module was 90 minutes. The research results included greater improvement in biomechanical and physical variables and in the level of spike performance for the experimental group compared to the control group, which indicates the effectiveness of the core training. | ||||
