Brief Summary: Chronic ankle instability CAI results in neuromuscular impairments compromising balance lumbopelvic stability and hip strength Balance training has proven to be an effective intervention for individuals with CAI Additionally unilateral balance training for those with CAI has previously led to cross-education effects in which the untrained limb exhibited improved balance performance However the ability of unilateral balance training to improve contralateral hip strength and lumbopelvic stability in those with CAI is unknown The purpose of this study was to determine the cross-education effects of balance training on hip strength and lumbopelvic stability in individuals with CAI

Thirty individuals with CAI will be randomized into control CON and balance BAL groups Baseline testing include a unilateral hip bridge hip strength and balance tests of the uninvolved limb For the unilateral hip bridge the participant will hold a bridge through the test limb for maximum time Isometric hip strength will be measured for external rotation ER extension EXT and abduction ABD using a handheld dynamometer The star excursion balance test SEBT requires participants to maintain a single-leg stance while reaching for maximum distance with the opposite leg in three directions anterior SEBT-ANT posterolateral SEBT-PL and posteromedial SEBT-PM The BAL group will participate in a progressive balance training program three times a week for eight weeks for the involved limb whereas CON will not All baseline measures will be reassessed at the end of the 8 weeks Separate 2-way repeated measures ANOVAs will analyze the effects of group and time on each outcome Additionally each groups mean changes from baseline to post-intervention will be assessed with Cohens d effect sizes Statistical significance is set a priori at P005
