ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is researching how the way our feet move and function affects balance and the strength of muscles in the legs, especially in young adults. The study will look at how these factors relate to each other and how they might influence activities like jumping. It aims to understand more about how our foot mechanics could impact overall movement and balance.

To participate, you need to be between 18 and 25 years old and willing to take part in the study. It's important that you don't have any regular exercise habits, and you shouldn't have any physical disabilities or conditions that could affect your balance, like vertigo or multiple sclerosis. The trial is not currently recruiting participants, but if you meet the criteria, you might have the chance to help researchers learn more about foot and muscle mechanics. Participants will be guided through the study process, and their contributions could be valuable in improving our understanding of balance and movement.
