Interventions
The online exercise intervention in this study will consist of a structured program including a warm-up period, shoulder girdle stabilization exercises, stretching exercises for the upper and lower extremities, back extensor strengthening, lower-extremity balance and coordination training, and a cool-down period. All exercises will be delivered in an online setting under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Each exercise will be performed in two sets of 10 repetitions. The intervention will be implemented over a period of six weeks, with two sessions per week, and each session will last approximately 40 to 50 minutes. After completion of the baseline assessments, participants will begin the exercise program with a warm-up phase intended to increase cardiorespiratory activity and prepare the neuromuscular system for exercise. The warm-up will include marching in place, controlled breathing exercises, and shoulder abduction.
