What is the Y Balance Test?

What is the Y Balance Test?

The Y Balance Test is a validated functional assessment used to evaluate dynamic balance, stability, strength, and neuromuscular control.

It measures how well an individual can maintain balance on one limb while reaching in multiple directions, providing critical insight into movement control and injury risk.

At our center, the Y Balance Test is an essential component of injury prevention, rehabilitation, and performance assessment frameworks. It helps identify asymmetries and control deficits that may not be visible during regular strength or fitness testing but can significantly impact performance and injury risk.
