Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Presence of systemic or neuromuscular disorders (cerebral palsy, spina bifida, peripheral neuropathy, vestibular disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, diabetes mellitus) History of severe lower extremity injury within the past year (fracture) or within the past two years (anterior cruciate ligament rupture, meniscus tear, ankle dislocation) Obvious lower limb deformities such as cavus foot, knee varus valgus (abnormal Q angle), or leg length discrepancy greater than cm confirmed by an orthopedic specialist Limited ankle dorsiflexion range of motion (less than with knee fully extended).

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Change in peak plantar pressure (kPa) in the forefoot region (forefoot) measured by a plantar pressure plate (PT-Scan, Payafzafan Ferdowsi, Iran) during static standing.Change in peak plantar pressure (kPa) in the heel region (rearfoot) measured by a plantar pressure plate during static standing.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Change in dynamic balance assessed by the Y Balance Test (YBT) composite score (normalized to limb length).	—
