摘要：

. Low back pain is a common health problem that can be associated with health conditions and academic absenteeism in female college students. Core weakness affects spinal stability and contributes to low back pain. This study examined the effects of core training on posture, function, and pain in female college students with low back pain. A quasi-experimental study was conducted with 22 participants divided into an experimental group and a control group. Posture was assessed with sagittal arrow tests and an inclinometer, function with the Oswestry questionnaire, and pain with an analog scale (ENA). Training consisted of specific core exercises performed twice a week for four weeks. The results showed that although there were no significant changes in functionality (p=0.356), the experimental group showed a significant reduction in kyphosis (p=0.016) and lordosis (p=0.011), as well as a decrease in ENA (p=0.014). These results suggest that a core training program can improve posture and reduce pain in college women with low back pain. However, more frequent sessions are recommended to achieve improvements in functionality. In conclusion, core training is an effective intervention to improve posture and reduce pain in college women, highlighting the importance of including these exercises in prevention and treatment programs for low back pain in this population.
