First seen Jan 16, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study tested whether doing 30 squats on an unstable surface (like a wobble board) improves balance and coordination more than squats on a stable floor. 42 healthy adults aged 18-35 participated. Researchers measured postural stability, leg coordination, and dynamic balance right after the squats. The goal was to understand how surface stability affects immediate balance improvements.
