Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Expected outcome 1. Evaluate the range of motion of ankle dorsiflexion in a closed kinetic chain using the method Weight Bearing Lunge Test (WBLT), which presents the parameters in numbers (dorsiflexion angle and distance between the participant's foot and a wall);;Found outcome 1.
