简要总结
Objectives: Determine the effect of an 8-week intervention of the new group fitness program Les Mills Pilates on balance, core stability, abdominal, back, and hip muscle endurance, flexibility, and mood. Research questions: Does doing Les Mills Pilates twice per week for 8 weeks result in: 1) increased balance, 2) increased core stability, 3) increased abdominal, back, and hip muscle endurance, 4) increased flexibility, and 5) improved mood? Intended outcomes: this study will determine the efficacy of a new group fitness program developed by Les Mills International. Results will be used to help refine the program, as well as in marketing of the program.

结局指标
主要结局
Core endurance (time to failure in seconds)
时间窗: 8 weeks
Endurance of the core muscles- abdominals, back extensors, hip extensors, quadriceps- time to hold a plank (abdominals), biering-sorenson test (back extensors), unilateral hip bridge (hip extensors), wall sit (quadriceps) will be recorded. Participants will hold each position until failure. Higher times to reach failure indicate more endurance (better value).
次要结局
- Core stability: Sahrmann trunk stability test(8 weeks)
- Balance (single leg reach distance in cm)(8 weeks)
- Flexibility in cm(8 weeks)
- Mood(Daily for 8 weeks)
