In order to estimate the participants’ dynamic balance, after a short warm-up (5-10 minutes of stretching and slow running), (SEBT) balance test was applied. Dynamometer Isokinetic Biodex System was used to execute proximal and distal muscle fatigue in lower extremity. Each subject participated in four muscle fatigue sessions. The fatigue program was randomly executed with respect to location and plane motion to one of the muscle groups of plantar/dorsiflexors and evertor/inventors of ankle joint and flexor/extensors and abductor/adductors of hip joint. Repeated contractions until reaching 50% of primary maximum torque with an interval of 72 hours and in the same situation as far as possible were performed. After fatigue program, SEBT posttest was applied. Descriptive statistics, correlated t test and analysis of variance (repeated measures) were used for statistical analysis (P?0.05). The results showed that the isokinetic fatigue of proximal and distal muscles of lower extremity significantly decreased accessible distance in SEBT test. Furthermore, fatigue in the muscles of hip joints significantly decreased accessible distance compared to the muscles of ankle joints. It can be concluded that the fatigue of proximal muscles in lower extremity was more effective in the dynamic balance of soccer players compared to the distal muscles.}, keywords = {Distal Muscles,Dynamic balance,fatigue,Lower Extremity,Proximal Muscles}, url = {https://sshr.ut.ac.ir/article_24149.html}, eprint = {https://sshr.ut.ac.ir/article_24149_801fe4784d7ca90290acd70c8684370b.pdf} }
