Abstract in brief

  • This study compared the effectiveness and tolerability of different core muscle exercises in patients with nonspecific chronic low back pain, finding that exercises like the front plank with brace, modified curl-up, squat, and bird-dog activate key muscles effectively.
  • The research measured muscle activity using electromyography (EMG) and patient tolerability ratings, concluding that most exercises were well tolerated except for the lateral plank.
  • The findings provide evidence-based guidance for designing exercise programs for patients with low back pain, emphasizing exercises that effectively activate core muscles while being tolerated well.]
