摘要：Background: Postural stability is considered as the most important component of athletic performance as it occurs in almost all movement types. This study aims to identify the relationship between the postural stability, performance and trunk muscle endurance of female athletes in different branches of sports. Materials and Methods: 45 female athletes participated in the study. Trunk muscle endurance of the participants was measured with the McGill core endurance tests and the prone bridge test. Postural stability of the participants was evaluated using Biodex Biosway Balance System, sportive performance was tested with the vertical jump and the hexagonal obstacle test. Results: A negative relationship was observed between the prone bridge test and right postural stability overall index, between the prone bridge test and right anterior - posterior postural stability index, and also between the prone bridge test and left medial - lateral postural stability index parameters. No relationship was observed between sportive performance tests and postural stability, and between trunk muscle endurance and sportive performance tests. Discussions: It can be said that in female athletes in order to have a better postural stability, trunk muscle endurance should be increased as postural stability and trunk muscle endurance are related with each other.
