Effects of balance training combined with stroboscopic visual training on balance ability in college-aged male soccer players.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Balance training combined with stroboscopic visual training (SVT) has emerged as a potential intervention for enhancing athletic performance. However, limited evidence exists regarding its effectiveness on soccer players' balance abilities. This study aimed to investigate the effects of a 12-week SVT combined with balance training program on balance ability in college-aged male soccer players.

Methods

Thirty male soccer players (aged 18-22 years) were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (SVT + balance training, n = 15) or a control group (traditional training, n = 15). Balance assessments were conducted pre- and post-intervention using the Stork Stand Balance Test (SSBT), Static Single Stance Test (ST), Y-Balance Test (YBT), Sensory Organization Test
