Summary

The aim of our study is to investigate the effects of a game-based exercise (Exergame) program and trunk stabilization exercise training on shooting performance, reaction time, trunk muscle endurance and balance in adolescents playing archery. While the importance of the effect of trunk stabilization on shooting performance is mentioned in individuals practicing archery, it is emphasized that trunk stabilization training increases sportive performance and protects against injuries in individuals interested in sports for the upper extremity. However, no study is found that directly compared game-based exercise programs and trunk stabilization exercise training in adolescents who play archery. Therefore, two different training programs will be given to the adolescents playing archery at the Archers Foundation Sports Club in Istanbul, and Shooting performance, reaction time, trunk muscle endurance, and balance levels will be evaluated before and after the training.

The number of repetitions and difficulty levels of the exercises will gradually increase in the 3rd and 6th weeks.
