Diagnosis of Muscular Imbalances of Plantar and Dorsal Flexors of the Ankle Joint and Definition of Their Mutual Relations in the Individual Performance Classes of Basketball Players

The primary objective of the research is to define the relationship between plantar and dorsal flexors in all performance classes (U_15 - U_19, men and elite "A" players) through a bilateral isokinetic ankle muscle testing with a chronological description of changes in their proportions.
This definition can serve as a tool for early detection of the potential risk of an inadequate stability of the ankle joint, associated with the risk of being dislodged, due to the excessive muscle adaptation of the "over-working out" of one muscle group.
