Description
The Y Balance Test Kit™ is a quick and easy way to test a person’s risk for injury as well as demonstrate functional symmetry.
As an integral part of the Functional Movement Systems, the Y Balance Test is a thoroughly researched, yet easy way to demonstrate functional symmetry and performance as well as test a person’s risk for injury. The Y Balance Test Protocol was developed through years of research in performance improvement and injury prevention using the Star Excursion Balance Test. This device and protocol are highly accurate and can be used for measuring pre and post rehabilitation performance, improvement after performance enhancement programs, dynamic balance for fitness programs, and return to activity readiness.
Additional Information
Why YBT?
Asymmetries are a factor in increased injury risk.
How do we measure and quantify a person’s motor control and functional symmetry? The Y Balance Test (YBT). YBT allows us to quarter the body – left versus right and upper versus lower body - to test how the core and each extremity function under bodyweight loads.
What is YBT?
Having control of your limbs requires a stable core.
The Y Balance Test was developed through years of research in injury prevention and identification of motor control changes that occur after injury. The YBT is a simple way to measure a person’s motor control and demonstrate functional symmetry. The result? A map that identifies road blocks to a person’s functional performance both in rehabilitation and performance worlds.
Who should use YBT?
All healthcare and fitness professionals are encouraged to complete the online course.
