| Abstract: | Background: Limited ankle movements (dorsiflexion and plantarflexion) are mainly due to soft tissue restriction. Primary limitation to dorsiflexion is due to tension in Triceps Surae which consists of Gastrocnemius and Soleus. A disturbance of ankle ROM, resulting from muscle tightness during gait, may affect not only the ankle-foot complex, but also the remaining joints of the lower extremities and causes several compensatory changes leading to ankle and foot problems. Aims and Objective: The objective of this study was to assess ankle flexibility in sedentary population by weight bearing lunge test. Methods: A total of 134 participants participated in the study out of which 100 participants met the criteria. The International Physical Activity Questionnaires (IPAQ) was used to measure health-related physical activity. The Weight Bearing Lunge Test (WBLT) was performed to measure ankle flexibility. Results: The ankle flexibility was decreased in 81% of participants. There is linear correlation between the ranks of IPAQ score and WBLT distance. As a result, decreased level of physical activity leads to decreased ankle flexibility. Conclusion: On the basis of our analysis, it concludes that there was positive correlation found in between ankle flexibility (Weight Bearing Lunge Test) and Sedentary lifestyle (International Physical Activity Questionnaire). |
