Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| An increase in the levels of ankle dorsiflexion is expected, based on a minimum change of 6°, evaluated by the physical test called the Weight Bearing Lunge Test, in which the participant is evaluated regarding his maximum capacity to generate ankle dorsiflexion in the position standing, immediately after the intervention, 4 weeks and 12 weeks after the allocation. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| An increase in ankle stability levels is expected, based on a minimum change of 5.87% for the Anterior reach; 7.84% for PM range; and 7.55% for the posterolateral reach, assessed by the physical test called the simplified Star Excursion Balance Test , in which the participant is evaluated regarding his maximum reach capacity with the opposite foot to the evaluated one, measuring immediately after the intervention, 4 weeks and 12 weeks after allocation. | — |
