Currently, sports have experienced significant advancements, with more and more records being broken, so it is necessary to develop new training methods and use technologies to maximize athlete performance and, in turn, take care of their physical and mental integrity. Therefore, this study aimed to design a program founded on Core exercises to strengthen the cyclists' physical preparation for injury prevention in mountain biking practice. For this, a data analysis was conducted, applying a pre-test and post-test. In this study, 35 athletes from the Red Bike cycling school from Sígsig canton participated in continuous physical preparation; a program of Core exercises was implemented based on athletes' age and capacities. The results were favorable, demonstrating an improvement of the strength in the muscles of the Core structure, so it is concluded that Core exercises help to improve the strength in the central part of the body and influence injury prevention at the lumbar level.
