PROCEDURETurning based specific training along with functional Muscle training

Experimental group will receive Turning based specific training protocol for 6 weeks along with functional muscle training, training will be done on alternate days. Functional muscle training: Details: Week 1-6: 3 days a week on alternate days. Hip Abductors: Side lying leg raises Single leg squatting Standing leg wall press Progressing to Adding resistance bands Hip adductors: Side lying adduction Standing Adduction Progress to adding resistance bands Hip Flexors: Standing leg lift Straight leg raises Progress to adding resistance bands Hip Extensors: Prone lying raises Standing single leg extension Progress to adding resistance bands Plantarflexors/ DorsiFlexors: Plantarflexors: Plantarflexion against resistance Toe raises Dorsiflexors: Dorsiflexion against resistance Heel raises Hip external rotators: Sitting-externally rotate hip 0-30° Add resistance bands Hip Internal rotators: Sitting-internally rotate the hip 0-30° Add resistance bands.
