“…This means that the internal reference 17) for motion is established by improvement of perceptual ability, and requires execution of a certain motion before it becomes able to correct detailed motion by comparative matching of the internal reference with actual motion and improving motor skill ability. It was reported that center-of-gravity sway while standing on one leg increased significantly compared to the sway experienced while standing on two legs; centripetal information from the visual, somatosensory, and vestibular labyrinth pathways plays a crucial role in posture control while standing on one leg 18) . Moreover, we have reported that motor-related areas such as the premotor and supplementary motor areas are involved in comparitive matching of somatosensory information and the production of motor program activation during plantar hardness discrimination training like that carried out in the present study 19) .…”

Abstract. [Purpose] We investigated the influence of plantar hardness discrimination training on center-of-gravity sway while standing on one-leg.[Subjects] Twenty healthy adult volunteers were randomly divided into intervention (n = 10) and control groups (n = 10).[Methods] The intervention group subjects carried out 10-day plantar hardness discrimination studies on sponges with 5 different levels of hardness. The control group underwent the same training except that they were not instructed to discriminate sponge hardness. Center-of-gravity (COG) sway while standing on one-leg with the eyes open or closed was measured before and after the training. Statistical analyses were performed the COG path length, enveloped area and rectangular area values.[Results] The number of correct answers for hardness discrimination significantly increased with the number of training days. There were significant reductions in the COG path length, enveloped area and rectangular area values after training in the intervention group compared to their respective values prior to training. In contrast, the control group showed no significant changes in these 3 parameters.[Conclusion] Our results suggest that the ability of healthy individuals to regulate center-of-gravity sway while standing on one-leg improved with enhancement of plantar perceptual ability through hardness discrimination training.

“…Matsuda et al [10] reported that a simple one-leg balance test with low difficulty does not show clear laterality. Lower limbs are little used dominantly; mostly, they are used similarly, such as when walking.…”

Lower human limbs may not show laterality, differing from preferential use of upper limbs, because both legs are generally used at the same time. This study examined laterality of static and dynamic balance abilities during one-leg standing. The subjects were 100 healthy male university students (age 19.6 ± 2.4 years，height 172.3 ± 6.2 cm，weight 64.8 ± 8.5 kg). All subjects were judged right-leg dominant based on a previous survey. They underwent static and dynamic balance tests with each lower limb. A total path length during one-leg standing on a fixed stabilometer for the static balance test and an omnidirectional stability index during one-leg standing on an unstable platform (DYJOC Board) for the dynamic balance test was each used as an evaluation parameter. The mean of two trials was used as a representative value in each test. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) in both balance tests were very high (ICC = 0.75-0.91). A non-significant difference between means of dominant and non-dominant legs was found in both tests; their correlations were significant and high (0.93 and 0.75). In addition, a correlation between dynamic and static balance tests in both legs was found be significant but low (0.21-0.25). In conclusion, the laterality is not found in the static and dynamic balance abilities during one-leg standing evaluated by the tests selected in this study, and the relation between both abilities is negligible size.

“…This would allow to maximize, in each period of the athlete's body development, the coherent creation and optimization of a wide set of fundamental motor abilities [11]. Quantitative analysis of postural sway revealed that soccer players present superior balance abilities compared with basketball players, swimmers and nonathletes for single leg stance [21,22]. The balance control occurs three basic control inputs incorporated with the various sensor units: vestibular, visual and proprioceptive mechanoreceptors.…”

This study aims to compare different dynamic balance ability between soccer players and sedentary. Sixteen soccer players and 18 sedentary participated in the study. Soccer players group participated soccer trainings consisting of different coordinative exercises for 3 years; the sedentary group attended a normal school program. Soccer players' mean height was 157.81±6.63 cm, mean weight was 44.06±6.81 kg and sedentary mean height was 154.91±7.45 cm, mean weight was 43.46±7.03 kg. Informed consent form signed by the entire participant, their parents and the trainer prior to the study as required by the Helsinki declaration. Dynamic balance ability with Prokin, Y balance and Flamingo balance tests were used. Factorial ANOVA and independent samples t test was used for analyzing the results. For dynamic balance ability; bipedal perimeter length (p=0.019), area gap percentage (p=0.019) and medium speed (p=0.032); right foot perimeter length (p=0.03) and medium speed (p=0.03) values; and for Y balance; right anterior (p=0.001), left anterior (p=0.001), right posteriolateral (p=0.001), left posteriolateral (p=0.008) measurements and also for flamingo balance test both on right-left foot and eyes openclosed results (p≤0.001) are significantly different in favor of soccer players. There were no significant difference for dynamic balance bipedal-right-left forward backward axis and medium lateral axis, right foot area gap percentage, left foot perimeter length, area gap percentage and medium speed and for y balance; right-left foot posteriomedial measurements. The dynamic balance ability of soccer players was clearly different than that of sedentary. According to these results it can be concluded that the effect of extensive soccer skill practice on overall balance control.
