      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: An uninvolved person in the study helped us via random number allocation software to randomly assign a number to each of the participants (60 participants for both the groups training at home n=30 and weight loss training n=30).  Then after recording the pretest session measurements, the assigning group (assigned via SNOSE method) was considered for each of the participants, Blinding description: In order for single blinding, some general information about how to perform the training and testing methods will be given to all the participants. However no information will be provided to the participants on which training group they will be placed in.</study_design>

      <hc_freetext>non-specific chronic low back pain.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: First intervention group: Practice at home: Exercises in this intervention included controlling the abdominal muscles and strengthening the thigh muscles. The exercises consisted of 5 movements for 6 weeks, 3 sessions per week, 3 sets per day, and each set of 10 repetitions for the subjects. Each session lasted 60 minutes, with the initial and final 10 minutes including warm-up and cooling, respectively. Progress in exercise was determined based on the pain intensity of each subject. Intervention 2: The second intervention group: Weight lose: In addition to receiving the exercise therapy protocol, the subjects in this group also received a weight loss program for 6 weeks, 3 sessions per week. If the subject had a treadmill, he could use it after complete training on how to work with the treadmill. Each training session consisted of a 40-minute walk, which included 5 minutes of basic warm-up, 30 minutes of walking at a speed of your choice, progressing at a faster pace, and finally 5 minutes slower to cool down.</i_freetext>
