 On the Analysis of Factors Affecting Static Balance AbilityQingyuan Wang Education Insights, 2025, vol. 2, issue 10, 245-250 Abstract: This study investigates the correlation between static balance ability and various segmental fat-to-muscle ratios, waist-to-hip fat ratios, and body morphology, aiming to provide guidance for improving static balance, enhancing athletic training, and preventing injuries related to balance deficits. A total of 47 students from the Department of Physical Education at Jinzhong College, including 26 males and 21 females, were selected as subjects, and body composition, body morphology, and balance ability were measured using the Youjiu Health X-ONE PRO analyzer. Results showed a significant negative correlation between one-leg standing time with eyes closed and total body fat, left lower limb fat, and waist-to-hip fat ratio (r < 0.05), while no significant correlation was observed with total body muscle mass, segmental muscle mass, shoulder-to-waist difference, leg length, leg-to-body ratio, or body weight (r > 0.05). These findings indicate that balance ability is a complex function influenced not only by muscle strength but also by body fat distribution and neural regulation. Therefore, improving balance ability requires not only muscle-strengthening exercises but also body fat management and targeted balance training.
