What this Trial Is About
The goal of this clinical trial is to know about the combined effects of calisthenics and plyometric exercises on reducing risk of MSK injuries among school-going children. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Will combined exercises (calisthenics+ plyometrics) have a better effect on reducing risk of MSK injuries among school-going children? 2. How do these exercise interventions impact functional movements, and musculoskeletal pain improvements in children Researchers will compare a calisthenics exercise group, a plyometric exercise group, and a combined group (Calisthenics+ Plyometric) to see if there are differences in reducing risk of MSK injuries outcomes. Participants will: * Be male school-going children aged 8-12 years. * Be randomly assigned to one of three groups: calisthenics, plyometric, or combined * Complete baseline assessments of MSK (Functional Movement Screening and pain). * Participate in their assigned exercise program 3 times per week for 8 weeks * Complete follow-up assessments of MSK (Functional Movement Screening and pain) at 4 weeks and 8 weeks. * Perform tests for functional movement screening and MSK assessment.
