Unilateral ballistic ankle training improves contralateral maximal strength and balance
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of unilateral ballistic ankle strength training on maximal strength and one-legged standing balance of the contralateral untrained lower limb. Twenty-four healthy Physical education students (mean ± SD age 23.1 ±1.7 years), with no history of neurological diseases or major orthopaedic lesions where included in the study. The subjects were randomly assigned to a training (TRN, n=13) or control (CTL, n=11) group. All participants underwent testing of plantar and dorsal foot flexors torque as well as one-legged static balance testing, a weak before, and a weak after five weeks of unilateral ballistic ankle strength training. The differences between the initial and final testing in the measured variables for the TRN and CTL group separately, was calculated by means of a paired sample t- test. Significance was set at the .05 level. Ballistic ankle strength training improved plantar flexors strength and single leg balance stance of both, the trained (T) and the untrained (NT) leg of the TRN group. There was no significant enhancement in any of the evaluated parameters for the CTL group. Such results show that ballistic training is likely to cause adaptations to many neural elements that are involved in the control of movement, and therefore likely to affect movement execution during a single leg balance task.
