Relationship Between Isokinetic Hip Muscles Performance Parameters and Balance in Patients With Chronic Ankle Instability

Observational, Cross- sectional study (one shot study), design will used (Correlation study) This study aims to investigate the relationship between hip muscles performance and balance in patients with chronic ankle instability using the Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) and Isokinetic biodex system III.

this study is to answer the question ; Is there a relationship between hip muscles (extensors/flexors, abductors /adductors, internal rotator/ lateral rotator) performance and balance in patients with chronic ankle instability?
