About this study
Official title: Targeted Balance Training During The Menstrual Cycle To Enhance Stability And Athletic Performance: A Randomized Controlled Trial
This study was done to investigate the effect of balance training on improving balance and athletic performance during menstrual cycle in young athletic females Does balance training improve balance and athletic performance during the menstrual cycle? 60 athletic females will participate in the study. They will be randomly assigned into two groups. Group A will receive balance training on biodex, while group B will be the control group.
- Being tested
- Balance Training
What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Balance TrainingDevice
balance training exercises performed on the biodex balance system 3 sessions every week for 12 weeks
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Balance Training | Experimental | Not described Receives: Device: Balance Training |
| control group | No intervention | Not described |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Balance
biodex balance system device to measure balance Anterior posterior Stability index (APSI) This index is calculated using the degree of oscillation of the platform, in which low values indicated that the individual had good stability.
Measured: 12 weeks
Secondary outcomes (2)
atheletic performance
atheletic subjective performance scale
- asking participants to rate their performance during the past week according to their own opinion.
- Use the scale between 1-10: 1="not at all satisfied", 10="fully satisfied":
Measured: 12 weeks
Athletic dynamic balance
Star excursion balance test (SEBT) measure the ability to maintain single leg stance on one leg while reaching as far as possible with the contralateral leg in 8 different directions, When the person demonstrates a significantly decreased reach while standing on the injured limb compared to standing on the healthy limb, the Star Excursion Balance Test has highlighted her loss of dynamic postural control
Measured: 12 weeks
