Abstract :
The purpose of this study was to find out the effect of core strength training on selected motor ability variables of college men handball players. To achieve the purpose of the study, (n=30) college level men handball players were randomly selected as subjects. The age ranged from 18 to 25 years. They were assigned into two equal groups of fifteen subjects (each group), namely, Experimented Group and Control Group. Experimental Group was experimented with core strength training, whereas the Control Group was not exposed to any experiment. The selected motor ability variables selected for the study are speed, leg explosive power and upper body strength. Before the experimental period, pre test was conducted for all 30 subjects on selected motor ability variables. After the experimental period of eight weeks, post test was conducted and the scores were recorded.
