Objectives: The strategy for dynamic postural stability might be different for male and female players. Additionally, dynamic and challenging tasks are recommended to measure differences in postural stability between injured and non-injured players. Therefore, the dynamic stability index (DSI) was developed …

Background Information: Slumped sitting has been associated with low back pain. Low back pain has shown to affect postural stability. In the lower back of a healthy person, little is known about the effects slump sitting has on motor control and sway. Objective: To investigate if there are differences …
