Abstract

The aim of the study was to measure the goniometric differences of the knee and hip joints and the changes regarding the features of fitness balls by taking into consideration its circumference and the vertical and horizontal diameters under the action of the body weight. The outcomes of the study have resulted in the creation of a table with reference values regarding the size of fitness balls in relation to the height and body mass index of the subjects.

Keywords: PVC ball; goniometry; somatometry; health; fitness
