This study investigates how different foot types affect ankle movement during a dynamic task. Specifically, it looks at maximum inversion, which is the inward rolling of the foot, the time it takes to reach this position, and how fast this movement occurs.
Participants will undergo a dynamic perturbation task, which involves movements that challenge balance and stability. The study will measure how foot type influences these movements without any intervention.
- Who can participate: Individuals aged 18 to 26 who are physically active, engaging in 150 minutes of moderate exercise weekly, can participate. Exclusions include those with chronic ankle instability, recent lower body injuries, or conditions affecting gait, like cerebral palsy or multiple sclerosis.
- Study details: Participants will perform tasks that test ankle movement to see how different foot types respond.
