Cross-sectional study examines core stability, endurance, and strength factors impacting performance in amputee soccer players, suggesting training focus.

Key Points

To explore how core stabilization, endurance, and muscle strength relate to physical performance in amputee soccer players.
Cross-sectional study of 15 male amputee soccer players in the Turkish Amputee Football Super League.
Assessments included core stabilization (PBU), core endurance (McGill Battery), respiratory muscle strength, isokinetic knee strength, and handgrip strength.
Physical performance measured by single-leg triple hop test distance, 10-m sprint time, and Closed Kinetic Chain Upper Extremity Stability Test score.
PBU score negatively correlated with THT distance (r = -0.928, p < 0.001) and 10-m sprint time (r = -0.580, p = 0.023).
McGill total score positively correlated with THT distance (r = 0.561, p = 0.030).
Handgrip strength showed positive correlation with CKCUEST score (r = 0.634, p = 0.011).
