“…In an immobile sport activity, without holding a rifle and without specific clothing (i.e., non-ecological condition), elite shooters (competition shooters) had better postural performance than non-elite (military) shooters in visual and nonvisual conditions (Aalto et al, 1990). In mobile sports, there would be also a relationship between sport performance and postural performance in athletes practicing different activities such as soccer, gymnastics, golf, baseball, and stand-up paddle board (Paillard et al, 2006, 2007b, 2011; Paillard and Noe, 2006; Sell et al, 2007; Asseman et al, 2008; Butler et al, 2016; Schram et al, 2016; Jadczak et al, 2018; Pau et al, 2018). However, for a given sport, it is not always possible to distinguish the athletes’ postural performance according to their competition levels in the standard postural conditions (e.g., bipedal quiet stance) often used by experimenters (Paillard et al, 2002; Asseman et al, 2004).…”

“…Golfers and runners demonstrated faster onset of trunk muscle activation and higher muscle activation amplitudes in response to sudden trunk loading disturbances when compared to control subjects (Glofcheskie and Brown, 2017). Young soccer players at national level displayed faster and more efficient postural stabilization after a forward jump than young soccer players at regional level (Pau et al, 2018). On the basis of specific and difficult postural tasks, one can wonder whether the relationship between sport performance and postural performance is found in postural disturbance conditions particularly when activating, naturally or artificially, the sensory functions of athletes.…”

The review addresses the relationship between sport expertise (i.e., sport competition level), postural performance (amount of motion of the center of mass/of pressure of foot or ability to preserve body balance), and postural strategy (geometric organization of different body segments as well as neurobiological involvement of organism). Since the conditions of postural evaluation are likely to influence results, the aim is to compare athletes at different competition levels in ecological postural conditions (specific postural conditions related to the sport practiced) and non-ecological postural conditions (decontextualized postural conditions in relation to the sport practiced). Evidence suggests that the most successful athletes in terms of sport competition level have the best postural performance both in ecological and non-ecological postural conditions. However, in non-ecological conditions, the postural tasks should be preferentially challenging or relatively close to the sport practice stance. Moreover, the most successful athletes also have more elaborate postural strategies compared with athletes at lower competition level. Mechanistic explanations as well as conceptual models are proposed to explain the role of different factors influencing the relationship between sport expertise and postural performance and strategy.

“…In addition, Erkmen et al [19] reported a correlation (r = -0.59, P < 0.05) between balance ability and countermovement jump in male football players. To maintain balance during shooting or breakthrough in soccer, a certain amount of power is required to control the instantaneous torque generated as the players change their center of gravity [9]. In other words, power helps to maintain dynamic equilibrium by rapidly generating a greater opposing force to the force applied in one direction in a dynamic situation.…”

“…Most studies on the fitness factors related to the performance of soccer players have reported the effects of aerobic capacity, anaerobic power, and agility [6][7][8]. However, some studies comparing static balance and dynamic balance according to the level of performance of soccer players showed no significant difference between the superior and inferior players in terms of static balance [9]. Furthermore, many studies have emphasized that dynamic balance plays a role as a co-factor in non-contact injuries, and thus is an important factor for injury prevention [10][11][12].…”

Background: The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors needed to improve the dynamic balance of youth soccer players. Methods: A total of 170 youth soccer players (84 U-15 and 86 U-18 players) participated in this study. Their anthropometric (height, weight, and body fat percentage) and physical ﬁtness (dynamic balance, muscle strength, power, core strength, agility, reaction time, and ﬂexibility) characteristics were evaluated. To investigate the effects of these factors on dynamic balance, a multiple regression analysis was conducted. Results: The results showed that the weight (P = 0.008) and back muscle strength (P = 0.039); and actions, such as sit-up (P = 0.017), countermovement jump (P = 0.019), and trunk forward ﬂexion (P = 0.009) were signiﬁcant factors affecting balance in all the soccer players of this study (R2 = 0.265). In the U-15 group, only the countermovement jump (P = 0.019) was found to signiﬁcantly inﬂuence dynamic balance (R2 = 0.275). In contrast, in the U-18 group, weight (P = 0.002), sit-up action (P < 0.001), countermovement jump (P = 0.019), and trunk forward ﬂexion (P = 0.011) were found to affect dynamic balance (R2 = 0.439). Conclusion: Our study suggests that muscle strength, power, ﬂexibility, and core strength are needed to improve the dynamic balance of youth soccer players.

Diseño de estudio: Observacional de tipo transversal analítico. Objetivos: Establecer si existe asociación entre la flexibilidad de miembros inferiores y el equilibrio dinámico en estudiantes de futbol soccer de una academia de Lima Perú. Antecedentes: El riesgo de lesión en la práctica de fútbol soccer está ampliamente documentado. Así mismo, la flexibilidad y el equilibrio son capacidades funcionales de consideración para el óptimo desempeño de la práctica deportiva. Material y métodos: Se evaluó la flexibilidad a través de la medida del rango articular con goniometría y se evaluó el equilibrio dinámico con la prueba de excursión en estrella, de la traducción al inglés Start Excursion Balance Test (SEBT). Resultados: Se encontró asociación entre la flexibilidad de la articulación de tobillo en la prueba de dorsiflexión con rodilla flexionada y los resultados de equilibrio dinámico con SEBT total. Conclusiones: Es necesario realizar más investigaciones con un diseño prospectivo para obtener significancia estadística de todas las pruebas.
