Abstract

The study is focused on evaluation of the effect of intervention balance program on postural stability (PS) among university students of "Specialization of gymnastic sports". The experimental group (n = 18) performed a specific balance program in addition to their regular training sessions and the control group (n = 15) underwent their normal sport regimen.

The multi-sensory FOOTSCAN platform was used for the posturographic examination. We evaluated the parameters COP (TTW) in the tests: narrow standing position with (NS-VC) and without NS-WC) visual control, flamingo stance on the preferred leg (FPL) and non-preferred leg (FNL).

The results of study showed that even a low volume specific balance program performed in addition to regular training sessions may also lead to postural stability enhancement.
