In this study, 30 college students performed 5 weeks of abdominal muscle and lower back muscle training on the flat ground and training ball respectively.

The researchers tested the strength of these college students in studying the strength of the anterior and posterior abdominal muscles and lower back muscles, the flexibility of the abdominal muscles (rectus abs) during sit-ups, the flexibility of the lower back muscles (elevated spinal muscles) during dorsiflexion and extension, and the ability to balance the body when standing on one leg.
