Introduction: Barreasoul is the movement of bale exercise from the standing posture to the horizontal posture on the ground. Barreasoul exercises include those activities that are constantly involve agonist and antagonist muscles. All the muscles exercise together simultaneously.
Methodology: The present study investigated the effects of 8 week Barreasoul exercise on the range of motion, muscle strength and lumber lordosis angle on female students between the age of 15 to 17 years. 20 high school female students who had lumbar lordosis were voluntarily selected. They were divided into two experimental group (N=12) and control group. Feature of experimental group was the average age 16.9+1.2, The average height 160±0.52 cm, and the average weight 60.1±9.9 Kg. As for control group the average age, height and weight were 16.4±1.02, 160±0.25 cm and 63±5.5 kg. The experimental group was exposed to Barasoul exercise for 8 weeks, 3 session of 45 to 60 minutes per week. Lumbar range of motion was measured by sit and reach test, gluteus and abdominal muscle strength was measured by gluteus muscle strength evaluation test and up test respectively. Lumber Lordosis angle was measured by flexible ruler before and after eight weeks of Barasoul exercise. Data analysis was performed through ANOVA. For repeated data, SPSS 21 edition was used (P≤0.05).
Results: Results showed lumbar range of motion, muscle strength of large gluteal and abdominal right after eight weeks of Barasoul training increased significantly (P≤0.05). The lumbar lordosis angle also decreased significantly after the test (P≤0.05).
Discussion: So these exercises can be used in correction movement for increasing muscle range of motion, muscle strength and correction of lumber lordosis deformity.
