The effects of soccer training and timing of balance training on balance ability

European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2006
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of a soccer training session on the balance ability of the players and assess whether the effectiveness of a balance program is affected by its performance before or after the regular soccer training.

Task-specificity of balance training

Human Movement Science, 2015
Despite much research on balance training, it is still unclear whether balance training leads to highly task-specific adaptations or rather non-specific adaptations. Hence, in this study we examined whether balance training increased performance only in the balance task that was trained or also in non-trained tasks.

Resistance Training and Energy Balance

International Journal of Sport Nutrition, 1998
In this brief review we examine the effects of resistance training on energy expenditure. The components of daily energy expenditure are described, and methods of measuring daily energy expenditure are discussed. Cross-sectional and exercise intervention studies are examined with respect to their effects on resting metabolic rate, physical activity ...

Gain in Strength and Muscular Balance After Balance Training

International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2001
The isolated effect of balance training on muscle strength of the flexors and extensors of the knee, without accompanying strength training, has not been addressed in the past. Effects of a balance training program alone were compared to a strength training program.

EFFECTS OF BALANCE TRAINING ON SELECTED SKILLS

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2006
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a 4-week balance training program on specified functional tasks. Thirty-six subjects (age = 22.7 +/- 2.10 years; height = 168.30 +/- 9.55 cm; weight = 71.15 +/- 16.40 kg) were randomly placed into control (C; n = 19) and experimental groups (Tx; n = 17).

An Exercise Sequence for Progression in Balance Training

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2012
Compared with resistance training, information concerning the progressive configuration of balance training (BT) is rare and lacks scientific validation. Therefore, a study was designed to determine participants' ability to perform balance exercises with increasing level of difficulty.

Balance training (proprioceptive training) for patients with rheumatoid arthritis

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2009
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis may have an increased risk of falls due to impairments in lower-extremity joints, which may result in either mobility, or postural stability problems. There is evidence in the literature suggesting that balance, agility and coordination training techniques can induce changes in lower-extremity muscle activity patterns

Water and Salt Balance of Well-Trained Swimmers in Training

International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, 2009
This study investigated fluid and electrolyte balance in well-trained male and female swimmers during 2 training sessions. Participants were 17 nationally ranked swimmers measured during a period of intensive training. Sweat loss was assessed from changes in body mass after correction for fluid intake and urine collection.

A Comparative Study of Sports-specific Balance Training versus Plyometric Balance Training

Chettinad Health City Medical Journal, 2022
Introduction: Football is a sport that involves running as the foremost part in which the lower limb plays a vital role in participation. Balance training is vital to athletic performance and should be integrated into an athlete’s daily training. Plyometric represents the performance of stretch-shortening cycle (SSC) activities that involve a high ...
