Abstract

Background: Groin pain are more common in gymnastic sports. Repetitive microtrauma with thwarted
repair might cause persistent injury in the tendon-bone junction. The gymnast with generalized
ligamentous laxity is more prone to overuse injuries because lax ligaments fail to provide ligament
stability and further stress on the tissues neighborhood of the joint cause overuse injuries. The study
aimed to investigate the comparative study between active physical training & active resistance training in groin pain among young gymnasts.
Material and Method: 30 athletes were recruited for study and randomized into 2 Groups. Active
physical training (Group A), Active resistance training (Group B). A comparative (Cross-sectional)
research design was used. Structured exercise protocol with pain reliving modality was given as an
intervention (for 1 Hour working day) to assist improvement in strength and pain in the cases of groin
pain.
Results: The statistical analysis showed significantly improved strength of adductor muscles and
reduces groin pain with the structured exercise protocol(Group A)
Conclusion: Research concluded that athlete's intervention with structured exercise protocol has a
significantly earlier recovery of strength in hip adductor muscle and reduced pain in the groin in
the active physical training group (Group A) than the active resistance group (Group B), which had
significantly late recovery of the adductor muscle.
