Effects of Short-Term Dynamic Balance Training on Postural Stability in School-Aged Football Players and Gymnasts

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Static and dynamic balance abilities enable simple and complex movements and are determinants of top athletic performance. Balance abilities and their proficiency differ fundamentally with respect to age, gender, type of balance intervention, and type of
