The impact of brain gym on Body balance of Non athlete female students

Given the significance of balance in maintaining body posture and exercising complex sports skills, the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of brain gym on static and dynamic balance of non-athlete female students. To this end, 24 non-athlete female students from University of Kharazmi voluntarily participated in this study, and were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group performed brain gym exercises, which were specifically designed to improve their body balance, for 8 sessions of 30 minutes each. The control group underwent a series of flexibility and stretching exercises, deemed not to impact their balance. The number of sessions and the time devoted to each session was the same as the treatment the experimental group went through. In order to measure the static and dynamic balance of the participants in the pre- and post-test, the Stork and Star tests were administered. ANCOVA was used to analyze the data. The results indicated that controlling the pre-test scores, there was a statistically significant difference in the static and dynamic balance between the control and the experimental groups, suggesting that brain gym has a positive impact on static and dynamic balance. It then follows that due to the ease of implementation of brain gym exercises, coaches and physical education teachers can use brain gym in order to improve balance in their students.
