Efficacy of a 12-Week NASM Optimum Performance Training Program on Gluteal Muscle Strength, Hip Aesthetics, and Low Back Pain in Non-Athletic Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial
This RCT evaluates a 12-week NASM OPT program targeting gluteal muscle strength, hip aesthetics (shape, lift, circumference), and low back pain in 120 non-athletic women. The intervention group performed structured resistance training, while the control group engaged in general exercise. Outcomes included gluteal strength (dynamometer), aesthetic satisfaction (Likert scale), and functional performance (squat test).
Participants were randomized to NASM OPT (3 weekly sessions: stabilization, strength, and hypertrophy phases) or general exercise (brisk walking/aerobics). Measurements at baseline and 12 weeks included gluteal strength, hip circumference, low back pain (VAS), and perceived aesthetics.
