- Abstract
- BackgroundThe aim of this current study was to investigate the effect of lower body resistance training without the use of visual feedback on static postural control. MethodsTwenty-four subjects between the ages of 20-50 were recruited and were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 groups: a control group, a sham group and an intervention group. The sham group performed 3 exercises: a body weight squat, a stationary lunge and a 30-sec single leg stance for 3 sets of 10 repetitions with a 45-sec rest in between. Postural control was assessed by measuring the centre of pressure displacement using an RS footscan force platform. ResultsThere was a significant effect of group on the lateral component of COP (p = 0.026). There was a significant effect of time on within the vertical component of COP. Values obtained in pre1 were significantly lower than those at post1 and post2 (p= <0.001 and =0.001 respectively). There was a significant effect of time between the delta x and delta y values (P= 0.02). There is a significant difference in time (P= 0.002) within the overall COP measurement. ConclusionRemoval of visual input during lower limb resistance training exercises does not improve static postural control.
