Article Title: The title must be specific, unambiguous, and complete in lower case Times New Roman size 16 pt.

Author Name and Affiliation:

The author's name must be without title or professional position and the author's last name must not be abbreviated.

The abstract should tell potential readers what you did and highlight the main findings and should include the background and purpose of the paper, methods, main results, and conclusions.

Avoid using technical jargon and unfamiliar abbreviations.

Abstracts should be written in 200-300 words.

Keywords are written in English, 3–5 keywords or phrases, arranged alphabetically and separated using semicolons (;).

Don't use terms that are too general or too long.

Introduction: The introduction should contain the general background, an overview of the state of the art, a gap analysis or statement of scientific novelty, the research problem or hypothesis, and the research objectives.

The background to the problem must be provided adequately, but not excessively.

Existing solutions/state-of-the-art studies (including literature reviews, related works) should be presented concisely.

The gap analysis must be explained adequately. These gaps may explain key limitations or differences in approach from previous studies. This may indicate the scientific novelty of the proposed research.

Research objectives must be stated precisely and explicitly. These objectives should be linked to research gaps;

Literature reviews or related works should be included in the Introduction chapter, not as a separate chapter.

This discussion of related works can be presented as a literature review. However, this report should not be presented as an author-by-author review of the results, but should be grouped by method or topic.

Research methods:

Research methods must include research procedures, methods/algorithms/models used, data collection (including the amount and method of obtaining it), tools/platform/software, and test design. Review articles do not need to have this chapter.

Research procedures or frameworks describe the research/development stages carried out to achieve research objectives/outputs.

It should describe the methods/algorithms and models (including analysis or statistics) used in the research.

If available, an adequate description of the data set should be provided, including its amount, type, and method of acquisition.

This can inform the materials/platforms used in research, including materials and tools/software/hardware/platforms.

It should describe the design of the test to obtain the outcome data and its analysis.

Results and Discussion:

Results must be clear and concise. They should summarize (scientific) findings rather than provide detailed data.

All results in this chapter should be discussed adequately. The discussion can be presented along with the results or in a separate subchapter. Manuscripts that lack discussion will be considered rejected.

The discussion should explore the relationship of the findings to the initial questions or objectives outlined in the Introduction.

The discussion should provide an interpretation of each finding scientifically;

The discussion should also explore the significance of the findings. This may highlight the congruence/difference between the findings of this study and previous research.

Conclusion: The conclusion must answer the research objectives concisely.

It should provide a clear scientific justification for the research.

It should not repeat the abdominal muscles
