Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Knee proprioception. Timepoint: Pretest: one week before the beginning of the training program Posttest: immediately after the conclusion of the 6-week program. Method of measurement: JPST values will be done by using camera, skin markers and computer software (photogrammetry). this test starts with the subjects in a seated position while the leg is resting at 90u of flexion. The examiner passively extend the leg at a rate of 10u/s, starting from 90u, to an index angle between 30u and 60u of flexion.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Dynamic balance. Timepoint: Pretest: one week before the beginning of the training program Posttest: immediately after the conclusion of the 6-week program. Method of measurement: MSEBT: the subject balance on the dominant leg in the center of a star-pattern testing area. Before performing the test, a leg-length measurement is taken to normalize reach distance to leg length. Each subject will be then instructed to reach with the non-weight-bearing leg as far as she could in each of the 3 directions while maintaining single-leg stance.	—
