摘要：It is unclear whether athletes change their postural control over the course of a full season, or become more asymmetrical with respect to their neuromuscular performance over the same period. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a full season on the postural control of handball elite athletes. Ten healthy, elite male handball players performed bipedal standing (BP) and right and left unipedal standing (UP) during 30s. We used the RMS and speed of the center of pressure to describe postural sway. For the BP task, the sway was lower after season (P<0.005). For the UP tasks, the sway was lower after season only for the nondominant limb (P<0.001). Differences between limbs were observed only after season (P<0.03). In conclusion, training through a full season did not lead to deterioration of the athletes’ postural control, but by the end of season, the athletes were more asymmetrical.
