Introduction: Marching band performers are susceptible to a variety of injuries that may have long-term consequences, especially in the lower extremity. The Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) dynamic stability assessment tool has been utilized to detect the risk of lower extremity injuries, such as chronic ankle instability. The SEBT may be influenced by internal and external load variations amongst individuals; however, the interactions between these factors and the impact on specific populations, such as marching band performers, have not been studied. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine how performance on the SEBT differs when taking external load …
