The objective of this research was to determine whether or not increasing the strength of the core muscles may improve the level of technical execution of certain stability exercises performed on a mat placed on the floor on students of the Faculty of Physical Education, Palestine Technical University – Kadoorie. An equal number of male university students in their 20s and 25s made up the study's sample, which was then split into two groups: an experimental group with 20 participants (n=20), and a reference group with 19 participants (n=19). The experimental group participated in a training program that was designed to develop their core muscles over the course of six weeks. On the other hand, the control group did not participate in any training. The technical performance of the participants in stability movements was evaluated by administering a pre-test and a post-test that comprised four activities. These movements were the push-ups, the abdomens, the handstand, the headstand, the back and the pull-ups. In comparison to the group that served as the control, the members of the experimental group demonstrated a substantial rise in their level of technical performance throughout the stability movements. According to the results, working out the core muscles may help enhance the technical execution of stability exercises performed on the mat or floor.
