核心穩定乃人體在活動時能夠維持或恢復軀幹位置，以利各種姿勢動作的進行，其需仰賴核心肌群的肌肉能力與神經肌肉控制之協調，來構成核心穩定的要素。為了提升運動表現並且降低下肢運動傷害，許多運動員開始進行核心部位的訓練來加強軀幹穩定能力；而若能透過有效的核心穩定能力之測量，便可以間接推估運動員的表現和傷害發生的機率。然而測量核心的方法有許多，大致可歸類為肌肉能力（肌力與肌耐力）以及神經肌肉控制兩種，本文將透過文獻的整理分別介紹四種肌肉能力與三種神經肌肉控制的測量方法，再予以探討不同方法間之特性與優劣比較。

Core stability is contributed by muscle strength/endurance and neuromuscular control of the trunk. Maintaining or resuming an equilibrium position of the trunk after perturbation is essential for exercise. Many athletes carry out core muscle training to increase core stability for enhancing performance and reducing lower limb injuries. Once core stability can be effectively and appropriately estimated, the performance and the risk of injury in athletes can be predicted indirectly. However, there are many ways to evaluate core stability and they can be categorized into two types: strength/endurance of muscle and neuromuscular control of the trunk. In this article, different evaluation methods were evaluated. Strength and weakness of the training modes were also discussed.
