This study examined the effect of a 12-week dynamic exercise program incorporating Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) training on balance among late adolescent boys in Bangalore. A total of 40 participants underwent a pre-and post-test evaluation. The stork stand test is used to measure the balance of the subjects, Descriptive statistics and paired t-tests were used to analyse the data. The findings revealed a significant reduction in balance performance in the post-test results, suggesting that dynamic exercise and PNF training influenced balance outcomes in late adolescence. These results highlight the need for further research to optimize training protocols for improving balance in this age group.
