Figure 4

Differences in work (J/kg) for postural control between older and younger adults at the ankle and hip joints during the single limb support phase. (A) Ankle inversion work aimed to laterally shift center of pressure, ensuring the CoM remains within the base of support. (B) Hip abduction work aimed to shift the CoM towards the base of support’s center.
