Neuromuscular Training Improves Single-Limb Stability in Young Female Athletes
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Strengthening, resistance exercise, plyometric and dynamic movement training for ACL Injury. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Pretest/post-test study design, study will try to determine if a 6-week neuromuscular training program designed to decrease the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries would improve single-limb stability in young female athletes. Healthy female high school athletes will participate in this study. Single-limb postural stability for both lower extremities will be assessed with Stork balance test, Star Excursion Balance Test for Dynamic Balance and Single leg stance test for static balance. Participants will be included through convenient sampling. Informed consent will be taken from all the participants.
