The Effects of Suspension Training on Dynamic, Static Balance, and Stability: An Interventional Study.

While suspension training devices are increasingly gaining popularity, there is limited evidence on their effects on balance, and no comprehensive assessment has been conducted. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a 9-session suspension training program on dynamic and static balance, stability, and functional performance. A total of forty-eight healthy adults, aged between 18 and 30, participated in a 9-session suspension training program.

A Quasi-Randomized Clinical Trial to Compare the Effects of Suspension Versus Instability Training on Balance.

Context: Suspension training devices are becoming increasingly popular. Most studies analyzed the effectiveness according to diverse measures in patients with or without conditions at any age. The characteristics of suspension training are very specific and can increase instability and; therefore, enhance balance.

Association ankle function and balance in community-dwelling older adults.

Background And Purpose: Ankle function declines with age. The objective of this study was to investigate the association between ankle function and balance in older adults, with a focus on range of motion (ROM) and strength.

Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that included 88 healthy community-dwelling older adults.
