This study analysed the equilibrium strategies and EMG activity during postural equilibrium
in four different unstable surfaces. Thirteen team sport males were tested on a FLAT surface …

Literature that provides progression models based on core muscle activity and postural
manipulations is scarce. The purpose of this study was to investigate the core muscle activity …

The aim of this study was to identify and compare movement strategies used to maintain
balance while single leg standing on either a firm surface (FS) or on a wobble board (WB). In …

Background Athletes have been shown to exhibit better balance compared to non-athletes
(NON). However, few studies have investigated how the surface on which athletes train …

Background Postural control is organized around a task goal. The two most frequently used
types of tasks for postural control research are translational (translation along the anterior …

Healthy humans maintained equilibrium on rocking supports (seesaw) of different curvatures
and heights. We recorded platform tilt, horizontal displacements of the upper body, ankle …

Context The main goal of balance training is regaining a normal neuromuscular control to a
functional level. Although uniaxial balance boards are commonly used, no research has …

Introduction Compared to judokas (JU) and non-athletes (NA), horseback riders (HR) may
develop specific changes in their sensory control of balance. Methods Thirty-four …

This work investigates the kinematic and electromyography (EMG) strategy used by the
central nervous system (CNS) to keep equilibrium during anterior–posterior balance on …

Surface perturbation has been used for decades to study balance and postural control;
however the behavior of the trunk in these postural responses has been largely overlooked …
