“…differences for dynamic balance (Y test), but not for the rest of the fitness components [39]. In order to reduce the risk of injury, for American football players are recommended exercises for vestibular, proprioceptive, neuromuscular, with eyes closed and open, respectively on various surfaces -stable and unstable [40]. The use of unstable surfaces improves the values of dynamic balance and reduces the static postural balance for 7-year-old gymnasts [41].…”

Background and Study Purpose. Body stability is an important factor in the manifestation of human motor skills. The purpose of the research is to evaluate the efficiency of balance exercises, applied for 28 weeks, with a frequency of one activity / week, on a group of undergraduate students of the “Dunărea de Jos” University of Galați. Material and Methods. 195 subjects participated (99 males and 96 females), divided for analysis into 3 groups (underweight, N = 21, age = 20.16 ± .38, BMI = 17.46 ± .20); (normal weight, N = 111, age = 20.30 ± .21, BMI = 21.70 ± .17); (overweight / obese, N = 63, age = 19.90 ± .18, BMI = 30.69 ± .61). The tests were applied at 3 distinct times: initial T1 at the beginning of the academic year, intermediate T2 towards the end of semester 1 and final T3 at the end of semester 2. 3 static balance assessment tests were used (One leg standing test with closed eyes, Stork test and Flamingo test), respectively 4 tests to evaluate the dynamic balance (Bass test, Functional reach test, Walk and turn field sobriety test and Fukuda test). Results. ANOVA with repeated measurements and the differences between the test moments highlight in most cases values of F associated with significant thresholds (p <0.05), so there is an improvement in results for all 3 groups. The differences between T1 and T2 tests are larger than those between T2 and T3, so for almost all tests the progress is higher in the first semester, and in semester 2 there is a slight reduction, as a result of adapting to the proposed exercises. Even if they progress significantly, the group of overweight people has obviously weaker average results than normal weight and underweight people, signaling numerous individual cases that have problems in maintaining static balance and commit errors in dynamic balance tests. The better performances of the underweight in 3 cases (One leg standing test, Flamingo test Fukuda test and Walk and turn field sobriety test) cannot be generalized due to their small number compared to the other 2 groups, and this aspect can be considered as a new direction of investigation. Conclusions. There are premises for a favorable evolution of the balance indices for the group tested in this age group, but it must be taken into account that the low initial fitness level (generated by the lack of concerns for a lifestyle based on physical activities) is a factor that facilitated these less spectacular advances, but still statistically significant.

With the development of the economy, people are increasingly paying attention to their physical fitness. Football is a sport that places great emphasis on sprinting, quick stops, quick starts, directional changes, explosive power, and more. It emphasizes the comprehensive ability of the whole body, requiring a coordinated combination of speed, strength, flexibility, and endurance. Among them, American football is a type of football that is a highly competitive and engaging sport. It originated from the changing rules of English football and is the most popular sport in the United States today, ranking first among the four major professional sports in North America. American football is very popular among both amateur and professional groups and has many games. For example, Super Bol is the annual championship of the National Football League (NFL), and the winner is referred to as the "world champion". People want to win honors, so the planning of skills, physical fitness, and tactical strategies is very important. To win games, good strategic and tactical skills, as well as excellent physical fitness and skills, are necessary. Therefore, teaching and training team members is essential. During training, high-intensity training can easily lead to athlete injuries and the trainer may also have safety issues with the use of equipment. This article used literature review, logical analysis, and other methods to study how to attend a good American football course, sorted out the key points of this course in teaching practice, and started from practice to teach students. Continuously improving teaching methods during the teaching process aimed to reform teaching, and ensured the safety of athletes during training, so as to provide a theoretical basis for efficient training of American football players, and provide a blueprint for how to train American football players. Experiments showed that the reformed teaching method could effectively improve students' sports performance, with improvements in speed, flexibility, strength, and explosive power. It was recognized by most students and could enhance their love for football. Among them, the average progress of the 100 meter run and touch turn back run was 0.047 seconds and 1.035 seconds; deep squatting and hard pulling increased by 7kg and 8kg respectively; the Standing long jump and the standing high jump improved 1.1cm and 1.4cm respectively.

Introduction Soccer is a combative event that requires particular skills and physical fitness. The unique soccer characteristics determine the high incidence of joint injuries in the lower limbs. In this regard, balance training has proven to be particularly important, as research indicates a reduction in lower limb injuries justified by the gain in the athletes’ muscle control capacity. Objective This paper analyzes the repercussions of balance training on lower limb injuries in soccer players. Methods 16 soccer players were randomly divided into experimental and control groups, without statistical difference. Both performed routine training first, with subsequent adherence to balance training by the experimental group. The experiment lasted eight weeks, and the balance training was based on an exercise protocol of approximately 30 minutes, three times a week, for eight weeks. Indexers on recovery from lower limb injury were statistically analyzed and compared. Results After balance training, soccer players in the experimental group improved faster. At the same time, the lower limb injury was effectively improved. Conclusion The balance training method can reduce the probability of lower limb injuries in soccer players. Evidence Level II; Therapeutic Studies - Investigating the result.
