简要总结
Two groups with non-specific low back pain will be completing the same exercise protocol. The leaderboard group will have a gamified experience and the take-home packet group will be using a paper take-home packet. Outcomes will be measured at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, with pain and disability also being measured at 12 and 18 months.
详细描述
There will be two groups in this study, the leaderboard group, and the take-home packet group. The leaderboard group and the take-home packet group will be completing the same exercise program throughout the 6-weeks. The exercises included the plank, side plank (left and right side), foot elevated (left and right side), dead bug and bird dog exercise until discontinuation. The exercises will increase with repetitions every two weeks and that outline is listed below in procedures involved. The leaderboard group will have on demand video access to the exercises and the take-home packet group will have a take-home packet. The leaderboard group will also be receiving weekly leaderboards of average and top exercise durations of the leaderboard group participants. The audio description of exercise in the on-demand video group is the same script as the written description in the take-home packet.
