dc.description.abstract | Study aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of training while wearing socks differing in compression level
(clinical, sub-clinical, regular) on performance of static and dynamic balancing and agility tasks in healthy, physically active
people. We sought to understand whether socks with different compression properties supported postural regulation and agility
task performance by enhancing somatosensory perception, unskewed by specific age range effects.
Material and methods: Participants comprised 61 adults aged 18–75 years, divided into three groups (two experimental groups
wearing clinical or sub-clinical level compression socks, and one control group wearing regular non-compression socks during
training). An 8-week (2 × 1h per week) intervention programme was administered to train static and dynamic balance and
postural control, leg strength and agility.
Results: A mixed model ANOVA revealed no differences in static and dynamic balance and postural control and agility performance
between clinical, sub-clinical, and control groups before and after training. All groups significantly improved their
test performance, suggesting that training had some benefit on motor performance.
Conclusions: These results raised interesting questions requiring further investigation to examine the effects of wearing socks
(with and without different levels of compression) on motor behaviours in specific groups of elderly vs. young participants, in
physically active vs. less physically active people, and in performance settings outside standardized laboratory tests to study
applications in natural performance environments. | |
