Relationships among the Y balance test, Berg Balance Scale, and lower limb strength in middle-aged and older females

Conclusions: Performance on the YBT was influenced by the strength of lower limb. We suggested that YBT can be used to alternative as a measurement of dynamic balance. Proper training programs for older people could include not only strengthening exercises but also YBT performance to improve balance.
