Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In daily life, stiletto heeled shoes which are popularly preferred by women have different heel heights. This study aims to investigate the effects of these differences on balance, muscular endurance and functional skills. Heel heights were chosen as 4 and 10 cm. Other features of shoes (stiletto type/colour etc.) will be same. The tests will be randomly done barefoot, 10 cm, and 4cm shoes.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The evaluations will include Functional Forward Reach Test for dynamic balance and Single Leg Standing for static balance, heel raising and squat-up test for muscular endurance of plantar flexor and quadriceps muscles, ascending stairs for functional skills.

Measuring distance will be used for Functional reach test and timing will be used for single leg standing test. Timing and repetition number will be used for muscular endurance tests. Timing will be used to climb up 10 stairs with and without heel contact.
