Regulation of static and dynamic balance in healthy young adults: interactions between stance width and visual conditions by Wei Luo, Zhirui Huang, Hao Li, Tao Zhong, Peishun Chen, Yu Min

“…The influence of stance width on static balance and limits of stability was significantly greater in the mediolateral direction compared to the anteroposterior direction, regardless of visual condition.ConclusionAs stance width increases, the reliance on visual input for maintaining static balance decreases in healthy adults. We recommend using a self-selected stance width to optimize static balance and a 30 cm stance width to achieve maximum limits of stability during postural assessments.…”
